BLANCHE:
You haven't asked me how I happened to get away from the school before the spring term ended.
STELLA:
Well, I thought you'd volunteer that information--if you wanted to tell me.
BLANCHE:
You thought I'd been fired?
Blanche doesn't avoid this subject at all. She doesn't want to avoid lying about anything, she wants to let Stella do know she's doing fine. She brings it up because she doesn't want Stella to think she'd been fired - because she cares a great deal about what Stella thinks of her.
