Describe the difference between Anne’s and Margot’s feelings for Peter.
Answers
Answer:
Anne descriptions of Peter paint him in a positive light. He was Anne’s dearest friend, someone she found to unburden her heart and bare her soul at. Her quirkiness and flippancy were contrasted by Peter’s solid and calm demeanor. They used to sit together in the attic, talking their hearts out, studying, just enjoying each other’s company. Their relationship was not of a romantic nature, though such feelings were bubbling for quite some time. However, more than lovers, they were just people drawn together by chance; supporting each other through the trying times they were in. Anne’s loneliness led her to Peter, and after a point in time, she stopped caring about the comments from other people in the house who deemed their relationship as inappropriate. Peter was indispensable to Anne.
Margot was a little jealous of the relationship between Anne and Peter, but she did not have any hard feelings towards either of them. She just wanted a friend like Peter too, though she was used to being the odd one out.
