30. Knots.Cody writes that he learned how to tie a new kind of knot from Sophie. When he asks Sophie where she learned how to tie all kinds of knots, she gets a “look that she sometimes gets when you ask her questions,” and just says that she doesn’t know, adding that maybe someone taught her along time ago.
Sophie’s mysterious inability to remember her past or explain how her past has affected her shows again here. Cody’s comment about the “look” Sophie gets indicates that he’s starting to notice that her forgetfulness is a pattern.
