From the Corner of His Eye (3)

This book is killing me... the suspense is crazy but soo good!

"He realized that like so many women, Seraphim wanted it, asked for it - yet had no place in her self-image to accomodate the truth that she was sexually aggressive. She wanted to think of herself as shy, demure, virginal, as innocent as a minister's daughter ought to be- which meant that to get what she wanted, she required Junior to be a brute. He was happy to oblige."

Well, he finally revealed who raped seraphim. Junior, who happened to be the man who killed his wife, raped Sera. I dont know exactly what this guy has been taught, but he's messed up in the head. I wonder if people actually think this way when it comes to sexual abuse... That poor girl went through hell and it makes me so mad, even if it is fiction, at the fact that he views it as something she wanted and begged for. GRRRRR... that just really hits the spot. If he finds out she had a baby, i know he will go looking for it. Who knows what he would do. He also found out that when the morticians did the autopsy on his wife she was pregnant and hadn't told him yet... He felt a little remorse for what he did, which I still dont know why he did it, but he got over it and now he's dreaming of sleeping with the nurse.

Agnes and her baby, Bartholomew finally went home. She decided that she had to move on for her baby's sake and for herself. She cooked a nice meal and invited her brothers and her english student, Maria. After dinner they brought out cards and Maria revealed that she practices her tarot on playing cards. They decided to have her read Barty's future. At first it was very good, filled with love, riches, and happiness and then it revealed that he will have a monstorous enemy that will be very violent, like the devil himself. This foreshadows whats going to happen to Barty when he and Junior finally meet face to face. I cant wait to see what happens and how violent it really will turn out...
