The Scarlet Letter Ch 18 &.19

In these chapters Hester and Dimmesdale are in the forest where it is private for them to speak to each other. When they first met it is weird for them because they have not come in contact in years the only contact Hester has had is Pearl.Hester tells him her secret and at first he is mad and refuses to forgive her,but Hester tells him that god will one day forgive and so should he.They talk about leaving and going away together and being a family with Pearl in the heat of this moment they both say yes and Hester tears off her A and calls Pearl to come her.But she won't come because she does not wear the A on her chest anymore like she use to. So Heaster puts it's back on and she comes to her. When I first read these chapters I got a little confused but after going over them in class I better understood it.
