Theme and Symbol

  1. B. The mess and spontaneity of Ford and Rosie’s wild love – In Chapter 44, the plaque “Wild Love” is mounted over the paint spill, celebrating their chaotic connection.
  2. B. His secret devotion to Rosie and his unwillingness to let go of the past – In Chapter 29, Ford reveals he has worn the diary key for ten years, showing his long‑held feelings.

  4. B. She rejects safe relationships and embraces a messy, passionate connection with Ford – In Chapter 43, Rosie jumps into the lake and explicitly says she wants a “wild love.”

Synthesis

  1. If Ford had told his parents about Cora immediately, the initial secrecy and tension with his family would have been avoided. His mother Gemma could have offered support sooner, and the grandparents might have bonded with Cora earlier. However, Ford’s fear of judgment over his past paternity scandal delayed that integration, making his eventual confession more dramatic.
  2. Ford tends to control situations with money and protective action (buying buildings, confronting Stan), while Rosie uses direct confrontation and emotional vulnerability (quitting, demanding honesty). His strength in logistics balances her openness, and her insistence on feeling heard forces him to communicate rather than just fix problems.
  3. B. To reveal that Rosie had long‑held feelings for Ford and to highlight Ford’s protective nature from an early age – The diary entry shows teenage Rosie felt safe in Ford’s arms during a blackout, foreshadowing their adult love and proving her feelings were rooted in years of trust.
