Answer: :D
Step-by-step explanation:
When his mother has left the room, Holden asks Phoebe for some money. She gives him the money she is supposed to use to buy Christmas presents. As he takes the money, he starts to cry. The crying scares Phoebe, but he can't stop. He tells Phoebe goodbye and gives her his hunting hat.
Holden seems to be preparing for his demise. Many of his actions in this chapter foreshadow his eventual attempt to unalive himself. :(
