Can anyone explain why Theo started crying when Chloe untied her in ch 4?

*hair

Hmmm this is my translation of the event. Chloe was talking about how love is a “wonderful curse”. It’s wonderful, but people would be ready to throw away things they hold dear for that curse. In her case, Chloe threw away the chance to explore the outside world and nurture her talent (she went to an art school during her Rumspringa), because she loves Danny and wants to stay with him. She let her hair loose, which is something forbidden in their culture, as a way of showing the rebellious part of her that was hidden away when she chose love above everything else. She was implying that if Theo has had a taste of love, then he will soon be in the position to make the choice and it’s no easy one. Theo must have understood this more than anything, so he was in agony.
