.Ingrid protests, however ultimately relentsu00e2 $" she knows her responsibility to her good friend, however sheu00e2 $ s additionally aware of the stakes, that include possible illegal costs if the cops familiarize her prior knowledge of Marthau00e2 $ s intents. They take a trip up, yet then promptly need to return to Nyc when Martha misplaces the pillu00e2 $" in a heart-pumping sequence they turn her house inverted looking for it. (To purchase another unlawfully, she says, would certainly be much too challenging.) When Ingrid locates it, in an envelope scrabbled with the word u00e2 $ Farewell, u00e2 $ you wonder if sheu00e2 $ ll hand it overu00e2 $" yet she does.Over the upcoming few days, back in their new estate, the pair lay out their guideline: Martha asserts that Ingrid needs to try to enjoy herself (though not discuss their expertise, lest the cops find itu00e2 $" though, normally, she does), as well as wait until sheu00e2 $ s ready. At that point, Ingrid is going to find Marthau00e2 $ s cherry-red room door shut, and also thatu00e2 $ ll be actually the verification that sheu00e2 $ s gone.Thereu00e2 $ s a sort of Hitchcockian fear in this portion of the story, particularly the gos of Ingrid climbing up the stairs to examine the place of the door again and also againu00e2 $" yet additionally an appreciated dose of dark humor.

Ingrid additionally heads to the health club, and relapses to discover herself breathless and haggard, suddenly concerned about her personal death, also. In some of my favorite patterns, Ingrid observes the door is actually closed and quickly throws up and also bursts into tears, however at that point a light and ghostly Martha, worn white, happens downstairs, saying sheu00e2 $ d opened a home window and also the wind had blown it shut. Ingrid is actually furious.Photo: u00c2 u00a9 El Deseo, photograph by Iglesias Mu00c3 u00a1 s.
