Chapter Five, Scene two is posted on Hada’s Fog today. See Hada’s page on the menu above. In previous chapters we learned about Hada’s external conflict and goal. She didn’t want to leave her quiet retirement in New Jersey. Her goal is to return as soon as possible. After they’ve arrived in California and she sees Samuel for the first time, she questions her goal.
In the course of conversation between Samuel and his father, Hada’s internal conflict arises. She tries to avoid it but something nags at her. Internal struggles concern self-doubt about previous modes of thinking and believing plus the viability of the goal. Hada senses something but isn’t ready to think about it yet.
