Love

Jane starts working for a man named Mr. Rochester where she is the governess of a girl named Adele, who Mr. Rochester is watching until other parents can be found.   Once she starts working for him Jane is introduced to a feeling she has not felt before, and that is love.  Jane was never given love by her Aunt or cousins or by anyone at the school of Lowood but when she sees Mr. Rochester she falls in love with him.  Jane was always curious about where Mr. Rochester was going when he went on trips and she was very curious about when he would be back.  However, when Mr. Rochester did arrive back she would act like she didn’t even know he was gone.  She did everything she could to hide the love she had for him, but Mr. Rochester could always see it in her eyes.  Jane believes that showing her love for Mr. Rochester is a weakness, so she hides it from everyone.  Adele is also providing Jane with love because Adele loves Jane like a mother;  And again this is a love Jane has never felt before. In this section of the book Jane is overwhelmed with feelings of love and does not know how she should act on it.

Adéle and Jane
