Perfect Chapter 33 Summary



Cara

  • It's time for Cara to come out to her parents. Well, almost.
  • On Easter Sunday, she goes to the Lutheran church with her parents, where she tries not to think about Dani in church.
  • The pastor gives a sermon about how Jesus died for our sins, despite our "lifestyles," and we should live free from judgment and sorry.
  • Too bad the other gay people at the Queer Spring Break Party were judgmental of her femme-ness.
  • Dani didn't mind, though. She told Cara they were just jealous, and after the party, they had sex in Dani's car in a parking lot.
  • By the way, Cara likes sex now.
  • Afterward, Cara told Dani everything that happened with Sean, and everything that happened with Conner, including how Conner was sleeping with his teacher.
  • Speaking of Conner, he comes to the church service with two Aspen Springs guys.
  • Cara's dad goes to shake his hand and say hello after the service. Cara tries to think of what to say and asks her mom, who's hanging back, if she's going to talk to him.
  • Her mom says she guesses that's what's expected of her.
  • Cara wonders whether her mom is more ashamed of her suicidal son or her (still closeted, for now) gay daughter.
