In this chapter, we learn more about Tommo's relationship with his sister. We learn that Tommo has never had sex with his older sister, and that he has never even had sexual intercourse with her. He tells us that he would rather have sex with a "strang er" than with a man like Tommo, who is earning a lot of money. Tommo says that he is tired of being "made love to" people who are not him. He wants to be someone who can rely on him, and he wants to make sure that he does not get "hate" from "him" . He says he will do his best to make love to Tommo.
