Beth Sabatino
A House of Cards, Ch. 3

I find Edward's jealousy in this chapter interesting. Not the fact that he is jealous, but the transference of whom he is jealous of from the start of The Forbidden Room. In TFR, we saw him trying to express his love to Bella, and of course, the heart breaking airport good-bye. Slowly, we saw a greater affection towards Jasper. I think Bella was a 4 on the Richter scale of Edward's soul, where Jasper was eventually a solid 8.

He seems, so far, to show a harsher emotion towards Jasper. Maybe because his leaving is fresher. I am happy to see he is starting to relent a little, and allowing Jasper to be near and have a civil conversation.

Finally, I can't decide if Edward is fantasizing about Jasper in the playroom, because he is hearing the sound of Jacob (a male sound) from downstairs, or if it is because it is Jasper's "company" he misses the most.
