=CHAPTER 24: Taking On A New Role= Sarah N

Linton proposes the idea of a possible future marriage to young Catherine. Appalled by the suggestion, Catherine lashes out and hurts the already weak and helpless boy. He makes a dramatic scene of the happening and causes Catherine to feel horrible and guilty for what she has done. With the intention of making it up to Linton, Catherine suggests that she takes care of him until he is well again. Unfortunately Nelly becomes ill herself and Catherine is force to take care of her and her father. This becomes extremely overwhelming for the young girl, especially since it keeps her from seeing Linton. So at night whenever she gets the chance, Catherine sneaks out of the house to go visit Linton. By sneaking out and visiting Linton, we are able to see a bond grow between the two young kids; a commitment to each other. They are developing a more serious relationship that could in fact lead to love.
