"Well, to tell you the truth, I was real upset for a while
there. But my papa told me it don't do no good sitting
around being mad. Then I seen how things was. I mean, I
should've seen it all along. After all, I'm who I am and
you're who you are."
Lillian Jean looked at me with astonishment that I could

learned the way of things."
"OH, I did," I piped readily. "The way I see it - here, let
me take them books for you, Miz Lillian Jean - the way I
see it, we all gotta do what we gotta do. And that's what
I'm gonna do from now on. Just what I gotta."

apologizing.
O It makes her astonished about Lillian Jean's
behavior in Strawberry.
O It makes her sad that she and Lillian Jean cannot
be friends.
