A Business Relationship
In the short story ââ¬ËA Business Relationshipââ¬â¢ Carlââ¬â¢s character is revealed as a simple man. He doesnââ¬â¢t need anything over the top, heââ¬â¢s practical when it comes to money and housework, and heââ¬â¢s incredibly thoughtful when it comes to his wife. To start, Carl seems to be a pretty simple man. The way the author describes their home; he didnââ¬â¢t need much to be happy.They had a small house, and not a lot of money but he was satisfied. When it came to their wedding, he wore an old black suit where the ministerââ¬â¢s and the janitor were the only witnesses. Secondly, Carl was very practical. When it came to money, he knew exactly how to handle it. He didnââ¬â¢t want to waste it when he didnââ¬â¢t think he needed to use it. For example in the story, when Olga wants to take him to the hospital he refuses. He thinks itââ¬â¢s too expensive to stay there, and that they donââ¬â¢t have enough money for it. Lastly, he was very thoughtful when it came to his wife.When she stated sheââ¬â¢d like to look out while she was working at the counter, he built her a window immediately. He liked to compliment her, for example on her gardening, he says ââ¬Ëno one would ever know you hadnââ¬â¢t come from the countryââ¬â¢. And when he had the extra money heââ¬â¢d brought her ââ¬Ëmarigolds and snapdragons to add to her border of wildflowersââ¬â¢. In conclusion, the way the author wrote the story, you can tell a lot about Carlââ¬â¢s personality. The way he speaks, how his wife acts around him, and in what he does. He lives a simple happy life, and he doesnââ¬â¢t need anything more to be pleased.
