"Who does that man think he is? What makes him think that he can talk to us like that?" Mrs. Bowles screamed as she was try to comfort Mrs. Phelps after what had just happened.
Mrs. Phelps cried into a tissue and then left Mrs. Bowles on the footsteps of the house wondering what to do next. She quietly sat down on the footsteps to the house and she'd made up her mind.
"Poems are evil," she quietly muttered to herself over and over again.
What does this man think? Just because he is a fireman he can go off saying whatever he wants to, what was Mildred thinking marrying the psychopath, thought Mrs. Bowles.
Mrs. Bowles abruptly got up from her quiet thinking session and she went back in deciding to yell at Montag and show him how disrespectful and rude he has been. As she enters back through the door, she sees a book lying on the ground. She decides to take it and run, quietly as no one heard her. She rushes out to her car and starts the engine.
Mrs. Bowles thinking that Montag is a dangerous man goes straight to the fire department and tells the fire chief, Captain Beatty, that he is holding books in his house and is a very dangerous man.
The fire department arrived at his house just minutes after Mrs. Bowles had told them about the stash of books at his house. They called out for him to come out, but all they could hear was the sound of the 100 year old house creaking.
They break down the door only to find that Mildred is only the floor with what seems like an overdose, and Montag is no where to be found.
Montag had left the house minutes earlier and was miles from the house now, most likely never to be seen from his family, friends or the town folks every again.

ReplyDeleteThe way you wrote this really helped me picture what was going on. Good job Avi!
ReplyDeleteI like the way that you characterize Mrs Bowles as a person that still doesnt understand books and their meaning
