Chapter 17 Summary

Dawn Celeste explains that Grandpa Ed’s tire blew out. Grandpa knew Dawn Celeste and Luke were hiking in the area and asked them to pick up Annabelle. Dawn Celeste explains that Annabelle should stay with them for a while, at least a day or two, because Grandpa has to go back to a nearby town to get a new tire. Annabelle realizes Dawn Celeste and Grandpa have been in touch this whole time and wonders if Grandpa is in love. Dawn Celeste and Luke give Annabelle a change of clothes and a bunk to sleep in.

When Annabelle wakes up, she feels guilty for inconveniencing Dawn Celeste and Luke. Annabelle also realizes Dawn Celeste drove her a mile and a half away from where they’d picked her up, which means Annabelle cheated by driving, rather than running, for that portion of her route.

Outside, it is another clear, beautiful day. The storm has passed. Annabelle asks Dawn Celeste to drive her to the place she picked her up, so Annabelle can make up the mile and a half. Dawn Celeste lends Annabelle a T-shirt and a pair of shorts. Unbeknownst to Dawn Celeste, Annabelle’s “plan is to jog casually until she’s out of sight and then flee.
