Chapter Summaries & Analyses
In the present, Victoria thinks about Grant as she spends her weekdays at the library, continuing her research on the language of flowers. On Saturday, she brings him a scroll of definitions for flowers starting with “J” when she and Renata shop for her niece’s wedding. Grant inquires about Bloom’s closing time. At the shop, the young woman looking for love arrives, and Victoria makes her a bouquet symbolizing first emotions of love, true love, and commitment. When Victoria tries to carry the wedding bouquets to the van, Renata stops her, saying that Grant has agreed to carry them; he has been waiting for the shop to close. Victoria approaches him and he invites her to his farm, claiming that her definitions will change when she sees his flowers.
In the past, Victoria gets on the school bus, angry because it is the first day of harvest. Elizabeth is so preoccupied that Victoria feels abandoned. Victoria is offended by the driver’s disgust at her chewing and hits him with her backpack. The driver kicks her off the bus; Victoria doesn’t know Elizabeth’s number or address, so Perla tells the driver to call her father.
