Quote #10
But I wasn't fooling myself either. I was up early because I didn't want Marisol to escape without at least saying good-bye. For all I knew, she'd never come back to Boston, or wouldn't tell me when she did. (17.2)
John doesn't want to miss the opportunity to say goodbye to Marisol, just like he doesn't really want to admit that she's leaving. Marisol might be trying to find herself, but it's not cool that she wants to disappear without saying goodbye either.
