This is a little bit detail of basic structure of my story.
Tia’s feeling during holding the good relationship with Antoinette
Tia knows that the white people are usually unwilling that their children have close relationship with black people. But Antoinette’s mother is indifferent her behavior. In addition, the family is not so rich.
Tia’s feeling when the relationship had been broken (or the process)
Although Tia picks up the money, this is a just one of games for her that is very popular among black people. She picks up the money in this time. But, if Antoinette proposes another bet and talks down Tia, the money will return to her. Anyone does not make a profit or loss in this game. Tia cannot understand Antoinette’s reaction at that time.
Tia bursts the clothes of Antoinette. However, she has qualms about it, because Antoinette’s house is not so rich. Although Tia cannot allow Antoinette, she continuously thinks that how can Antoinette get over the situation.
After, Tia notices that she had been a misunderstanding Antoinette’s reaction. At that time, there was Tia’s faint sympathize with Antoinette.
Tia’s feeling when she heard a kind of successful marriage of Antoinette’s mother.
Tia feels the same as Antoinette that “there are more ways that one being happy, better perhaps to be peaceful” (p.18). Antoinette becomes the symbol of white people for Tia.
Tia’s feeling during the time that is from hearing a plan of black people’s attack against Antoinette’s house to throwing a jagged stone at Antoinette.
Tia cannot understand why black people had given up the attack against Antoinette’s house. Because it is obvious that the ringleaders is going to be tried with extreme cruelty, and her father is included in the ringleaders.
Although Tia can understand that this situation is not only Antoinette’s guilt, Tia cannot stop herself to throw a jagged stone at Antoinette whose understand seems to never reach Tea’s situation.
