"Tampaknya tidak masalah bahwa Rose baru berusia delapan tahun. "Lebih dari delapan," kata Rose. "Hampir sembilan." "Sayang Rose, bahkan hampir hampir sembilan tahun tidak jatuh cinta," kata Caddy pelupa. Caddy berusaha keras menghibur Rose ketika Tom pergi. Itu bukan pekerjaan mudah. Rasanya seperti mencoba menghibur harimau kecil yang tidak bahagia. "Siapa yang mengatakan sesuatu tentang jatuh cinta?" geram Rose dengan kesal. "Jatuh! Jatuh karena kecelakaan! Aku tidak jatuh dalam apa pun!" "Oh. Benar. Maaf, Posy Rose." "Dan aku jelas tidak jatuh cinta!"

Sorry, Posy Rose." "And I am definitely not in love!
