Quote:
"...Janie went on home. The sight of the fields and the other happy people was too much for her that day. She walked slowly and thoughtfully to the quarters. It wasn't long before Tea Cake found her there and tried to talk. She cut him short with a blow and they fought from one room to the other, Janie trying to beat him, and Tea Cake kept holding her wrists and wherever he could to keep her from going to far."
Pg. 137
Comment:
(E) This part of the book is when Janie sees how Tea Cake and another woman are flirting. Janie gets incredibly jealous and mad at Tea Cake. After this happens, Tea Cake tries to comfort her, but she doesn't want to let him do so. I think Janie's jealousy was just a tiny bit out of hand because he's a young guy and sometimes they want to flirt with other women. I think she shouldn't have been that jealous because there is no doubt that that man loves her immensely. Janie probably felt a little insecure because the woman he was kind of flirting with was younger than her.
