MEDAL!!!!! Paraphrase! She is so much emerged in her desperation and her obsession that she prefers that the man is dead than the idea of him not desiring her. She keeps on looking at the telephone hoping and wishing it would ring. It becomes the center of her life and she keeps on looking at the telephone willing it to ring.
@mathmale this is due in 5 minutes and i need help. I did the other paragraph earlier but im in such a rush
It just might give you an idea of what to write as a paraphrasing if you were to replace the word "telephone" with "the man." This is NOT the answer; I'm just encouraging you to look at the passage in a novel way.
Thing is, this person personalizes her phone to the point where she's treating it almost as she would treat this mysterious man.
