Big Little Lies Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Madeline, Ed, Jane, and Jane's parents are all going to Blue Blues for some coffee. (And chocolate cake—Madeline's PMS is hitting her pretty hard.)
As they near the beachside café, Jane's mom wants to get a little alone time with Madeline. It's clear she wants to have a heart-to-heart chat.
They send everyone else into the café to order.
Jane's mom is worried about Jane. Jane seemed traumatized, says her mom: she's lost too much weight, she's silent and edgy, and she doesn't tell her mother anything.
Jane's mom thinks back to when Jane was pregnant with Ziggy. Jane had just broken up with her long-term boyfriend, and then gotten pregnant having a one-night stand…
And then she was never the same again.
Don't worry, Madeline tells Jane's mom. Jane is in good hands now—Madeline will be watching out for her.
