She is certain that something dreadful has befallen him, or that money matters have arisen, or that his sister is ill, or that Miss Williams is in town. Elinor is a little upset about the Colonel’s departure but is more so engrossed in the silence of her sister and Willoughby. She wants the two of them to declare their love for each other and engagement. She knows that Willoughby doesn’t have enough money yet to support his lifestyle, but believes that they could nonetheless announce their attachment. Willoughby seems really attached to the family. He has almost become a son and brother to the family. He seems to pass all of his time with Marianne, and the family. One week after the Colonel’s departure, he overheard Mrs. Dashwood’s ideas of improving the cottage in the spring, and he wholeheartedly refused the idea. Marianne and Mrs Dashwood eventually convince him that they shan’t change the house if it would cause him harm. Willoughby goes on to flatter the cottage in a way that makes Mrs. Dashwood all but convinced of his engagement to Marianne. SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.
