as the times grew harder and more tense - moonzack2013 - 03.07.2013 07:44 In fact, the mothers of all her girl friends impressed on their daughters the necessity of being helpless, clinging, doe-eyed creatures Respectable citizens were scandalized to find that Atlanta had a large and thriving red-light district, larger and more thriving than during the war And I wants to fight the YankeesDear God! she said and, for a moment, realization did not come He lifted his wide Panama hat That was odd in itself, because Scarlett had thought life could teach her no moreWellmthankee, Mam Ah jes see one baby birthed, an Maw she lak ter wo me out fer watchinBut it could change and it had changed Is there a rouge shortage?No word of missing her, even if he didnt mean it She wanted to drag his head fiercely down on her shoulder, stroke the graying hair and cry: Tell me whats worrying you! Ill fix it! Ill make it right for you!But his formal, remote air kept her at arms lengthOh, Rhett, dont lets talk of him! What does he matter now? Arent you glad to know I mean, now that IAs his tired eyes met hers, she broke off in embarrassment, shy as a girl with her first beau Emmie had a hankering to live here But there was nothing else to do but wear it The mask was goneDo you mean to tell me, cried Scarlett in amused amazement, that you havent yet asked Pa for Suellen? And youve been courting her for years!He flushed and grinned embarrassedly and in general looked like a shy and sheepish boy Retreat! Retreat! The army was moving outKeep yo shoulders unner dat kivver, ordered Mammy, passing the hand mirror to her, a smile on her thick lips The dull-gold damask draperies which had covered the arching French windows at the back of the room were missing, and only the remnants of the lace curtains remained, clean but obviously mended An Ah heerd dat whisperin you wuz givin him bout Miss SuellenI sang?Sang! You woke the echoes singing the Lament But Frank evidently enjoyed the meetings for he stayed out until all hours on those nights War was mens business, not ladies, and they took her attitude as evidence of her femininity Hard times were just temporary Was that what he meant?I dont believe it, said Mrs You see, shes delirious or You mustnt give up hope, Captain Butler She caused it all, prancin about Atlanta by herself, enticin niggers and trash Melanie met them halfway, surprising Scarlett with her unexpected vivacity as she told of trials at Tara, making light of hardships But he understandsHugh says that I must call out of courtesy for the way Captain Butler saved his life, Mrs She burrowed her head in the pillow and cried and kicked her feet at the tufted counterpane She didnt care what they thought Miss Scarlett and I just cant come home now Wade and the baby had been at Melanies since Franks body was brought home and she missed the sound of the boys feet and Ellas gurgling Ill treat him like he was my own boy Im going home to Tara soon and India Wilkes will stay with Aunt Pittypat She would have to cower at the seat of judgment and answer for that lie she told him coming back from the Yankee camp in his buggy He was very glad to help me out Lots of folks have told me: Oh, forget about it, Frank, but I cant I couldnt hold up my head if I thought Id done what wasnt right And when the Yankees come through Tara and might of burnt him out or killed him, he warnt fazed a bit and he warnt licked neitherAh! she thought angrily, sucking in her breath She knew they were untrueAs she screamed, the moaning from the second floor ceased and a moment later Melanies voice, weak and trembling, called: Scarlett? Is it you? Please come! Please!Scarlett dropped Prissys arm and the wench sank whimpering to the steps He had eyes for no one but Melanie and he spoke abruptly without greeting If only she could put off the hour of reckoning forever! She started suddenly as a creaking noise and a rhythmic Ker-bunkker-bunk broke the stillness of the air outsideIn the bedroom where the wraps were laid, she found Cathleen Calvert preening before the mirror and biting her lips to make them look redderWhatever his reason might be, she found his company most welcome Then, that explains She broke off, disconcerted, expecting to see his eyes snap with that ice And anybody who believes them or receives them is my enemyBress Gawd! ejaculated Mammy People, thank God, remember things like thatScarletts voice rose furiously Expecting violence, this gentle and loverlike gesture startled her Why had God invented children, she thought savagely as she turned her ankle cruelly on the dark roaduseless, crying nuisances they were, always demanding care, always in the way Say Yes, damn you, orShe whispered Yes before she even thoughtThats not a vast age After the door shut behind the doctor, Uncle Rhett came swiftly into the dining room and poured himself a large drink from the decanter before he saw Wade She would carry a pistol and shoot anyone who threatened herIf you say war just once more, Ill go in the house and shut the door She said haltingly: If you felt like thatand didnt take methen you dont love me Your family would die of shameHow careless they had been of food then, what prodigal waste! Rolls, corn muffins, biscuits and waffles, dripping butter, all at one meal And running it very well, too Scarlett held her peace, for it was easier to let well enough alone, and life went on smoothly enough, on the surfaceThe hurrying lines pushed her back onto the packed sidewalk and she smelled the reek of cheap corn whisky Atlanta had always been musical and loved good music, despite the sneering comments of sister cities of the South concerning LeBron James 2013 Finals Jersey the towns lack of culture, and there was now an enthusiastic resurrection of interest that grew stronger as the times grew harder and more tense
