Adunni, Tia, and Tia’s mother-in-law drive home “like dead bodies in a coffin” (182). Adunni has many things she wants to say but cannot find the words. Tia’s mother-in-law breaks the silence to insist that she had no idea what would happen. As she pleads for her daughter-in-law not to tell her son, Tia sits in silence. Adunni returns to Big Madam’s house and finds Kofi in the kitchen. He reveals that Big Madam’s sister had an accident and is in hospital. Big Madam went to the hospital, but Big Daddy is still at home. Kofi notices that Adunni looks unwell. He offers her cupcakes and tells her to rest. He also mentions that Abu is looking for her, but all Adunni wants to do is sleep.
