Back at the house, Ani asks if the teacher still hasn't shown up for class. She's worried that the lecture has been canceled, so she's going to go home and wait for the teacher to show up. Ani asks her mom if she can carry firewood around the house to keep warm, and Ani asks to be carried around by her mom. Ani is worried that her mom will make her rebel against her, and she begs her mom to let her carry the firewood around. Ani tells her mom that she doesn't want to be a hermit anymore, and that she'd like to live a quieter life with her mom, who's always on the lookout for her son. Ani also tells Ani that when they get home, they're going to have a servant waiting for them with dinner. Ani says that she can't sleep without her glasses staring at her. Ani thinks that Ani is joking about a cat, but Ani is shocked that Ani would say such a thing.
