All of this attention is hurting Elsie's feelings. Eddie resolves the dilemma by sticking by Elsie which shows to Tom that he is learning responsibility. He understands from Mrs. Livingston's haiku that Margaret is unattainable while Elsie is ``touchable''. ``It's really love if she doesn't have real long brown hair or anything 'cept you still think she's real neat.''
