Analysis Of Hide And Seek

Jessie comes and forces her to move to the other side of the room that they are sharing and so many other vulgar things. She killed her dog, pushed her down concrete stairs, stole her boyfriend, and started a fire in the school bathroom with Emily locked in. Emily and Nancy talk about how they need to stop Jessie and during the family camping trip is a perfect time. When they get there, someone throws Emily into a deep grave and hits her with a shovel. She looked up and saw it was Nancy and Nancy said that it was her the whole time and that she hates Emily because Emily saved herself and not her dad 3 years ago.

‘Piano’ and ‘Hide and seek’ show fond, vivid memories of childhood. The writers have obviously lived a happy life as they write in a joyful tone; this reflects the sentiment of Christie’s quotation. In contrast ‘A Mother in a refugee camp’ and ‘Prayer before Birth’ describe the horror of growing up in a poor environment. ‘Prayer before Birth’ indicates that life is a lottery and it is a matter of luck whether you avoid the hardships and pain of life. However ‘If-’ tries to guide the child away from making mistakes. ‘If,’ describes growing up to be a good and happy person, rather than a fulfilled childhood.

Nothing of interest was in the room, only dimly lit candles and trunks of old, moth eaten clothes. She felt as if someone, or something, was watching her, waiting to drag me into the shadows. Then there it was it was she was unsure but almost certain it was a ghost. The ghost was a white cloud like figure and its eyes and mouth were as black as the night sky's. It was more silent than the grave it arose from, staring with heavy lidded eyes and a slack mouth..As Emily turned to leave, “Don't go.” said a gentle voice, “we can be such good friends.” A blue-white glow filled the room making her skin appear paper thin. “Who are you” Emily asked in fear “We met the day I turned twelve. At the train station, you sat across from me with a small smile. Our toes could hardly touch the floor then. I remember being so very close with each other, but I don’t know how after what you did to me” Emily shook her head mutely. She'd been here an hour tops, or this was some nightmare. It wasn't real, how could it be. “Stay with me” the ghost repeated as Emily was trying to find a way out. She shook her head. “Why refuse

Amber dried her hands on a dish towel and went to look at her husband through the screen.

We Entered the Fully furnished antique home avoiding the broken glass pieces stuck around the perimeter of the window. The wallpaper was peeling and the furniture was eaten up by mice and rats.

An hour after the moving van parked in the driveway of 406 Clybourne street in Clybourne Park the younger family waved at the van when it slowly moved away and they went inside when the van was out of view. The family worked together to put away their belongings and they stood hand and hand and they took a breath of fresh air.

They all left until Mama was left there alone looking out the big window. Mama gingerly stepped to the window and put her plant down smiling in thought. When the door bell rung she jumped and went to the door. At the door was a white woman and when the door opened and saw mama she flinched and said “Hello, I’m your neighbor it’s nice to meet you.” She said “I’m Susan it’s nice to meet you.” She said this slowly, deliberately like she’s talking to a foreign person and Susan put out her hand and mama did not reach for it her face was just a blank stare. Then after a while mama stammered “h-hello I’m Lena Younger its very nice to meet you.” And she reached out and shook Susan’s hand and Susan quickly took it away. Then she said “Well I just came to say,” Susan took mama’s shirt and pulled her face so close to mama’s that their noses were touching. “stay out of our way, we will stay out of your way if you stay out of ours.” She shoved mama into their brand new house and slammed the door so hard that

“Girls, we can play this game all night. I've always been good at hide and seek.” Daddy yelled out. The little girls began to run again. Not stopping. Wolves howled at the full moon, and night owls hooted at the top of dead branches.
