Predictions (after reading up to page 159)

As I continue to read the book, it becomes more dense. Many things continue to happen all at once.The part that I have read up to is when Beloved pulled out her own wisdom tooth. In the previous chapter, there was a lot of talk about Sethe becoming pregnant again, because Paul D wants to have another baby. The focus of that chapter was that they actually tried, and millions of thoughts went through both of their minds as they did it. I predict that this encounter works out, and that they will have a baby. If she does, in fact, become pregnant, I do not think they will tell the girls right away, in fear that they will leave because they are against it. If and when Denver and Beloved find out, I think that Beloved will be the most upset. In the previous chapters, Denver expressed that she truly does feel as if Beloved is the human version of her deceased sister's ghost. She thinks that Beloved is thereto perform some sort of task. If Beloved really is Sethe's daughter in a different body, she will be extremely upset that Sethe is going to have another baby. Not only because she hates Paul D in the first place, but because Sethe's real daughter has finally come back (Beloved) and she is still not satisfied. I also think that at some point, Denver will try to run away because of how much she dislikes Paul D. There are many things that could happen, but there is only one way to find out.
