Chapter 23

holden leaves and calls Mr. Antolini, he was an english teacher he had. he is very shocked that Holden got kicked out again and he invites him to stay at his house. holden likes him because Mr. Antolini was the only one to really respect James Castles body after he died.Holden goes back into Phoebe's room and asks her to dance. After a few numbers, they hear the front door open—their parents have come home from their dinner party. Holden tries to fan away his lingering cigarette smoke and jumps in the closet. His mother comes in to tuck Phoebe in, and he hides until she leaves. He then tells Phoebe goodbye, letting her know of his plan to leave New York and move out west alone. She loans him the Christmas money she'd been saving, and he leaves for Mr. Antolini's. On the way out, he gives Phoebe his red hunting hat.

Response- OH MY he let go of his hat maybe this is a good sign, but i can't believe he gave it away although she was nice to him and he loved her.
