Once again, the bedspread is non-existent in ch.11 of Like Water For Chocolate. This could be because Tita is caught in the crossfire choosing between DR. Brown and Pedro. Even more so now that Tita had that "special" night with Pedro but feeling a deep love towards Dr. Brown. In chapter 1, we first heard of how the bedspread was Tita's hope that Pedro and her would still get married. The absence of it is because Pedro is not the only holder of her heart anymore, Dr. Brown is as well. We don't see the bedspread because Tita is unsure of whether she should choose Dr. Brown or Pedro, she isn't "set in stone" on who she should end up with. If she was totally all for Pedro, we would begin to see the bedspread again.
