What happens to May when she finds out about Zach's being arrested?

• A. She goes out to the park.
• B. She writes another letter.
• C. She hides in a closet.
• D. She goes out to the wall.

Answer: (D)

May reacts to disturbing news by retreating to a private, comforting space where she can process her emotions. When she hears that Zach has been arrested, the weight of the moment pushes her to go out to the wall, a place she uses as a quiet refuge to sit with her fear and sadness. This choice shows her tendency to cope by seeking solitude and a familiar cradling environment rather than outward action. The other options don’t align with how she handles crisis in this moment; she isn’t seeking the park, drafting a letter, or hiding away.
