Sundays at Tiffany's pgs 37-52

By: James Patterson

Summary:
It's twenty-three years later and Jane is not a child anymore, but she is more alone than ever. She has a steady boyfriend and works for her mom. Jane is a playwright for Broadway.  She has just recently written a show that was a huge success (Michael inspired her to write it, so no, she most defiantly has NOT forgotten about him). Because the play did so well, she and her overbearing mother are trying to turn it into a movie. Anyway, her boyfriend's name is Hugh and he was the male lead in her play, and based on the descriptions in the book, he is one hunky-monkey! 

After work she goes home and gets ready for her date with Hugh.  When she arrives at the restaurant, the hostess told Jane that Hugh had not arrived yet ,but that she was welcome to go to her table and wait.  While she was waiting, she began to play the Jane-and-Michael game without even realizing it.   After a couple of drinks and a half an hour later, Jane decides to go ahead and order her dinner.  She tries to come up with reasons as to why Hugh wasn't there yet, but she couldn't come up with anything other than that he might have been at gym (Hugh is obsessed with his appearance). When an hour passes, she concludes that Hugh stood her up and decides that it's time for her to go home.  On the way home, she tries her hardest not to cry in public.  Little does she know that as she's walking Michael (yes her x-imaginary friend: THAT MICHAEL) notices her. Michael is on vacation (meaning that he is in between jobs) and decided to come back to New York.  When Michael sees Jane, he completely freaks out because he has never seen one of his kids (meaning friend) as an adult.  He nearly knocks over a hot-dog stand as he runs to catch up to her.  The last thing that happens in this chapter is Michael telling his taxi driver to "follow that cab!"....

Response:
WOW! This book is really good :) I'm just a tad bit confused right now though because I don't know if Michael is like an adult when he sees Jane, or if he's still a little kid? I guess what I want (and hope) to figure out is if Michael like grows up ever? Apparently, there is a made for TV movie about this book, so maybe it won't be so confusing if I watch what happens :)
