7.04 Mauricio: A Short Story

The elves had given her one of his mother's nightgowns to wear. In the white lace, clean from any dirt and grime, her honey blonde hair no longer matted and mangled, Luna looked absolutely ethereal in the moonlight. She walks over to him and he holds his arms out, to which Luna accepts their invitation, seating herself on his lap.

Etienne loved to read to Marie-Laure and tell her stories. They have a connection where they both understand what it can feel life to be aimless. Marie-Laure, due to her blindness, can relate to Etienne in a way that the world they experience is different than how it really exists. As their relationship grew stronger, Etienne begins to open up to Marie-Laure. He showed her the room where his brother stayed and the radio beacon that they had built to transmit radio broadcasts. Showing her the room was a big step in his recovery because the death of his brother was one of the things that troubled him the most. Marie-Laure often asked him questions, some of which, he did not feel comfortable answering. For example, she asked questions, such as, why he had not gone outside in years. He explained that he used to love to go outside, but after the war and the death of his brother his love for it faded and he developed a fear of large spaces. Etienne claimed he had everything he needed inside along with his books and music for entertainment. The connection they formed slowly began to nurture Etienne back to a sane mindset. The most important factor that led to his change was the day he stepped outside for the first time in years. Etienne was so worried that Marie-Laure was not going to come back from the bakery that he pulled together the courage to go

- Free in store wi-fi, expecting to roll this out over the majority of the stores in the coming year. 70% of smartphone owners use them while in store shopping so free wi-fi is a low cost way, creating a reason for customers to come into store, stay longer, and buy more.

Unfortunate for them, all of us were settled in the private bus taking us to the Church. It was already eight. Some of the overly religious oldies were getting cranky about the long wait for the boys. They wanted to leave. Just like me. Unlike some species, I loathed tardiness.

“Thanks Tracie, I needed that!” He exclaimed as he put his neatly pressed shirt back on and began buttoning it up. Tracie frantically looked around the office for something to wipe herself off before going out there to marry the love of her life. Without any luck of finding anything, Tracie spotted her garter laying on the floor and picked it up to use to clean up a bit. Bola was now fully dressed and walked over to place on last kiss on Tracie’s lips.

Segundo’s body language said more than his words. He opened his eyes and drew back his head right before demanding, “Luna, I am a man! I will not live in the same building as him. I cannot leave you with the thirty-six year old temptation upstairs. Which is like leaving me with strippers. I will not allow you to visit unaccompanied either. You must provide a home for us. Then tell me a week in advance when we will be visiting your family’s building.”

The choice of setting in a novel work to establish the values represented by society and how characters are viewed. This may lead to a brick of independence or even a period of ignorance and judgment. In the novel the Scarlet letter,The Puritan society represents a suppression of women and highlights the intensity of mistakes, specifically that was made by Hester who commits adultery and ashamed to show the novel's stance on independence and values.

My initial reaction to this situation is to not advise them to write a prescription for their patient to give to the woman nor would I advise them to visit the woman either. If possible, I would say to that instead the patient could try to convince the woman to visit them or another doctor to examine if she actually needs the drugs for her condition. In this circumstance I consider both the physical, resident, and the woman as the primary decision makers with the patient as the stakeholder. My primary ethical question is whether it is morally permissible to write a prescription for someone who is not your patient and is it right to pay them a visit at their home.

Mrs.Flowers actions are like a lifeline for the silent child, Magruerite, because Mrs.Flowers gave her attention and love. An example from the story would be that Marguerite said, “ i was liked and what a difference it made. I was respected not as Mrs.Hendersons grandchild or Baileys sister but for just being Marguerite Johnson.” This shows that Marguerite made her feel special because at the beginning of the story she said she felt like an old biscuit now she feels liked and respected. Another detail is towards the end of the story Marguerite said, “ it was enough to prove that she liked me.” Margurite feels loved and respected after Mrs.Flowers spent time with her.

She had to rush to her dressing room due to everyone else already being there and in costume. Quickly, she put on her costume and did her hair and make up only to have a stage hand come knocking on the door, giving her the five minute warning.

That was when she knew she would have to plan her evening accordingly. She would have to leave the ball before midnight, maybe even earlier, and try to get home before everyone else did so they didn’t know she had been gone.

Mother walks in holding her daughter’s hand. She bows to the Pope with great reverence.

‘I thought I’d find you here.’ She sat down next to him. ‘The bridge looks gloomy.’

Two months later, Ellie and Coop were married. On their wedding day Ellie wore an elegant gown that flowed covering her baby belly, and Coop was dressed in a light grey tux. Coop agreed to let Ellie invite Katie to be her bridesmaid as long as it was alright with the bishop. When the bishop heard the news he was surprised because he thought that he would never hear from Ellie again, but he ended up giving Katie consent to be in Ellie’s wedding. After all, Ellie did save their Katie.
