Day 3 Part 3 Small World

One of the craziest turns that the book took- Joy is alive. Not only that , but she has a little baby by Swallow. What should Swallow do? As in the romances, I'm not entirely sure that Swallow actually loves Joy, but loves the idea of her. His life revolves around these horrible conferences filled with people he doesn't actually like. Joy is like a breath of fresh air. With her, he can escape the montony of that life, and his marriage. He has sex with Hilary just to (excuse my language) get off. He doesn't actually enjoy it, there's no intimacy there. With Joy there is. She is the forbidden, and as in every story we have read the forbidden is near irrestible. That is most likely the reason for all infidelities that happen. But like most unfaithful people, Philip won't leave his wife. Not only did Hilary greet him as if she was truly happy to see him, he just completely loses his nerve. There is a part of him that realizes that Hilary doesn't deserve something like this. Who knows what will become of Joy now?
