From the Paper:
"What happens after Rene walks out of Sasha's life is a real heart-breaker. Sasha sits in bed fantasizing about Rene reading her thoughts and coming back to the hotel and making love to her, which turns out to be what she really wanted before her fears got the best of her. When the door to her room begins to open it is a mystery as to who it is. Did Rene really come back for her, or was it still part of her fantasy? Unfortunately it was not part of her fantasy. A man had come into her room with the intention of making love to her, but it wasn't at all the man she wanted in any way, shape, or form. It turns out to be the "white dressing-gown", which the man who was in the room next to her had worn all the time. The man in the white dressing-gown was an odd character who Sasha really had no good feelings towards. Sasha looks "straight into his eyes and despises another poor devil of a human being for the last time." After this thought she "pulled him down on to the bed, saying: 'Yes - yes - yes'" (190). Sasha's final actions are the ultimate example of settling for less. She had no interest in this man at any point, yet he is the one she ends up sleeping with while in Paris. We will never know if Rene could have ended up being a savior for Sasha, breaking her self-conscious ways and helping her fall in love again. What is obvious is that Sasha had the opportunity to make herself happy, but she let the past creep into her thoughts again and ruin her future."
