Ok first of all I would like to say that Yumi's actions are not all her fault, as you have all stated and the book has stated many times, her childhood and overall life was not exactly anything golden or spectacular. I mean she isn't even married and has to take care of three kids, her parents, and try to manage to keep her job and maintain a somewhat normal home for her mother as well as make decisions concerning her father and then has Elliot coming around and scrambling her brain on top of it all. Yumi is under a lot of stress.
Throughout the readings, ex specially for today, we see how stressed out and frustrated and confused Yumi is. We also see how strong of a friendship and bond Cass and Yumi have, even if Cass had a split second thought of hoping that Yumi was dead their friendship still has deep roots. That's another thing I have noticed throughout the book is how obsessed Cass is with babies and children, I mean seriously why doesn't she just adopt one and get it over with or at least stop being so obsessed and like creepy about the whole thing. I am sure that it is hard for Cass not being able to have children and all but does she really need to go to extremes of trying to steal someone Else's kids or wish that her best friend had died to obtain children to call her own?
I also noticed all the symbolism with Elliot and the terminator thing like when he got fired and was told that he got terminated and such.
Just a few thoughts about the reading.
