Desiree: A Short Story

The climax consists of Desiree sitting on her bed one hot afternoon, and noticing that her sleeping child and the quadroon boy fanning him are the same color. She dismisses the boy and asks Armand who arrives a short while later what it means. He tells her that it means that she and the baby are not white.

He lightly blew warm air on Elena's as-yet barely touched, clit and lifted his head from between her thighs to lock eyes with her. "Unless you plan on begging me to make you come, and I might oblige." He smiled, in a position of full control now ; if only Elena didn't notice that notice that, having just released, Brett already sported another throbbing rock-hard erection and would soon be aching to come again

I was sure that it was homicide. The demeanor in her eyes, the way her corpse was contorted against the pristine hospital sheets…but the police wouldn’t take my case. It was that damned tequila bottle; they said it closed her airways. You’re lucky forensics even bothered. That was just an excuse. I knew the truth. It’s because I was advised to see a shrink, and the woman said it was schizophrenia.

Malessica yawned, covering her mouth. "I can't believe I'm falling asleep. Promise me you won't kill me in my sleep."

There once was a girl named Bailey, she was known for her rich family. She lived with both her parents and her three siblings; Alexander, Christian and Dominic. Alexander, 20, was the oldest of the siblings. Christian and Dominic, 19, were twin brothers. Although they were identical twins and looked so much alike, you could differentiate between them. Christian always acted like a buffoon anywhere the family would go. Sometimes he would use his silliness to get a girl. On the other hand, Dominic always kept to himself, he would give people a baleful look when they stare or try to start a conversation with him.

Throughout history women have also been treated less than men. Women are seen as beings that should be seen but not heard. Women should stand by her spouse and agree with them. Women are taught to be a doubtful follower and never to lead. But, black women have always been treated less than this for lifetimes. At one point, black women were only seen as property and not even seen as people. Black women have to endure with being at the bottom of the totem pole. They are penalties for being a woman and penalties for being black. The stories that we have read the following weeks highlight black women struggles in different eras of time.

Desiree is portrayed as a very dependent, fragile, and weak character throughout the short story Desiree’s Baby because of her response to the conflicts that are presented to her. Desiree’s Baby illustrates this when Armand rejects Desiree because their baby appears to have “negro” characteristics. Desiree depends on Armand so much that she wants to kill herself because he does not approve of her anymore since he believes she is of African descent. This highlights that Desiree cannot be independent anymore because she is willing to kill herself for not being able to be with Armand anymore. Next, Desiree is a very fragile character, which is also shown from not being able to handle the rejection from Armand.

When we as a class read the short stories by Kate Chopin, there was one character and the events that took place in her life that stood out to me. Desiree, and the happy to traumatic events that were spread out through one short story. Desiree was a very happy woman, who had a wonderful childhood but the wonderful childhood had a fault just like the end of her life did. Desiree was abandoned as a baby and found by a loving couple on the wealthier side who could not have children, they treated her so much like her own she had no clue she was not, until one day her adult life had been turned upside down due to the history of who she really was. Desiree and her Husband Armond realized that their child looked different than other children within

"Desiree's Baby” is an anthological short story written by a female American writer known as Kate Chopin. It was first published in the year 1893. It is a story that was written during the antebellum period in Creole Louisiana and revolves around miscegenation. Overly, the story explains how racisms had sunk deep into the hearts and lives of people in the 1800’s.

"How can you?! What if something happens? You’re our leader for the time being!" Lilith protested. He sighed, "Madeline's right. I need to sleep. The more I deny meditation and sleep the worse I will get. I haven't had any moment of rest since I woke up on at 5 am on Friday and now it's 5 am on Sunday." He said slightly worried.
