The warm shadow of a big, squarish frame house that had once been white, decorated with cupolas and spires and scrolled balconies in the heavy lightsome style of the seventies (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”108). The American (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120), knocked at the door (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109), he (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”110) were admitted by the old Negro into a dim hall from which a stairway mounted into a still more shadow. The Negro led (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109) him (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) into the parlor. When the Negro opened the blinds of one window (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109), he (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109) could see that the leather was cracked; and when (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109) he (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”110) sat down, a faint dust rose sluggishly about his (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”111) thighs, spinning with slow motes in a single sun-ray. A small, fat woman in black, with a thin gold chain descending to her waist and vanishing into her belt, leaning on an ebony cane with a tarnished gold head. She looked bloated, like a body long submerged in motionless water, and of the pallid hue. Her eye, lost in the fatty ridges of her face, looked like two small pieces of coal pressed into a lump of dough as they moved from one face to another. She (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109) and the girl (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) stood in the door (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109).

“Well, let’s try and have a fine time (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121).”
“All right, I was trying (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121).”
“It’s really awfully simple (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121)”
“The girl looked at the ground (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121)”
“I know you wouldn’t mind it, Jig. Its really not anything (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121).”

The girl did not say anything (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121). The girl (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121) stood up and walked to the end of the (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122) parlor (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 109)

The (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”110) small, fat woman in black (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”109) says to the man (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121) “That’s the only thing that bothers (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121) her (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) it’s the only thing that’s made (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121) her (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) unhappy (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”121).” “And you think then (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121) she (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121) be all right and be happy (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121)?”

The girl looked across at the (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 122) parlor (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 109), he looked up (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 123), “You don’t have to be afraid. If you don’t want to you don’t have to. I wouldn’t have you do it if you didn’t want to. But I know it’s perfectly simple (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121).” “I think it’s the best thing to do. But I don’t want you to do it if you don’t really want to (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121).”

The girl (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 120), her hair was cut short, making her (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 111) have (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121) a vague resemblance to those angels in colored churches windows-sort of tragic and serene (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 111).

The (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 110) small, fat woman in black (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 109 says to the man (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 121) “Last week (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159) she (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants” 120) tried to commit suicide (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159),”
“Why (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159) (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” 108)?”
“She (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) was in despair (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159).”
“What about (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159)?”
“Nothing (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159).”
“How do you know it was nothing (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159)?”
“What did (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159) she (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) want to kill (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159) herself (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”120) for (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159)?”
“How should I know (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159)?”
“How did she do it (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 159)?”
“Hung herself with a rope (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 160).”
“Who cut her down (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 160)?”
“The manservant (Faulkner “A Rose for Emily”108).”
“Why did he do it (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 160)?”
“Fear for her soul (Hemingway “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” 160).”

“I don’t care about me (Hemingway “Hills like White Elephants”122).”
“What do you mean (Hemingway “Hills like White Elephants”122)?”
“I don’t care about me (Hemingway “Hills like White Elephants”122).”
“Well, I care about you (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).”
“You’ve got to realize that I don’t want you to do it if you don’t want to (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).”
“Would you do something for me (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122)?”
“Would you please please please please please please please please stop talking (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).”
“I don’t want you to do it if you feel that way (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).”
“I don’t want you to do anything that you don’t want to do-- (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).”
“I’ll scream (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).”
“I’d better get the bags….. (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122)”

He picked up the two heavy bags and carried them (Hemingway “Hills Like White Elephants”122).
