Chapter 16 Summary: “Nina”

Nina returns home and writes a post in her neighborhood Facebook group asking if any neighbors have video footage of her house or the street leading up to it from the morning. She lies, saying that she is missing a package. She hopes to see Jake and hopefully identify whatever he took from their house. Nina cries while looking at older photos of her and Jake after their wedding. She realizes how much he has changed and attributes his more distant demeanor to his job.

Nina goes for a walk and notices a car following her. She turns onto a walking trail and loses the car, but she struggles with feeling both scared and paranoid. Believing that he is avoiding her, Nina wonders about Jake’s behavior. She reminisces about when they first met and how they fell in love and married quickly. Even though she always envisioned a traditional wedding, Jake wanted to elope, and Nina agreed. Nina’s mother felt disappointed at not being able to walk Nina down the aisle. Jake planned their elopement based on locations that he wanted to visit and activities he wanted to do. Still, Nina enjoyed the trip and felt Jake’s love for her.
