Scarlett wanted something else, but she didn't know what it was. Now she
had Rhett, and they were going to have a baby. But she had a feeling that
something was going to go wrong. The next night, while Rhett was sleeping,
Scarlett got up and left the house.
She stood outside of her house, the road dimly lit with streetlights. But where was she going to go? She thought she could go back to Ashley's house, just for the night. But what if Rhett found out she was at Ashley's? He would never forgive her. But she couldn't go anywhere else in Atlanta.
Standing on the sidewalk, she heard someone following her. Startled, she turned around. It was Rhett. "What are you doing out here?" he asked. Scarlett looked away. She didn't know what to say. Could she tell him that she wanted to leave? She said, "Rhett, I.I want to go back to Tara. Will you take me to Tara?" "You know I will. Let's go to bed, we'll go tomorrow."
Rhett put his arm around Scarlett and led her back inside the house. Scarlett sighed. But now she could have her baby at Tara, with Mammy there.
