What are Jigs wishes?

Jig's wishes are unclear
in this story. She constantly asks her male companion what he wants to do in regard to her
pregnancy, and she says, "I don't care about me." Later, however, she seems to want
her male companion to care about her pregnancy and to want her baby. She asks him whether her
pregnancy means anything to him, and she does not seem satisfied with his explanation that an
abortion is a "perfectly simple" operation. She then begs him to be quiet, which
implies that she is not satisfied with his answers to her questions. She seems to want to
believe him to the effect that she can go through with the operation and return to the way
things were between them, but she also seems to doubt his facile assurance that this is the
case. In the end, she feels conflicted and seems to have more invested in her decision about
what to do with her pregnancy than her companion does.
