In this chapter, the Governess explains that she is not the one who is looking at the painting. Instead, she has been in another person for the past few weeks. Her hands are smaller and frail, and she is unable to paint the dreams she has had for so long. The Governess realizes that the painting is the clue to her search for her soul mate. She decides to go to the man's house and confront him, telling him she is his "reincarnated soulmate" . He will not believe her, but he will listen to her anyway.
