Hello

Everyone

And welcome to bedtime stories with allland a rose for emily

Miss emily was sick for a long time

When we saw her again

Her hair was cut short

This made her look like a young girl

And she looked a little like the sad peaceful angels in church windows

That summer after her father's death

The town decided to fix the sidewalks

The construction company came to town with workers

Meals and machines

The leader of the workers was home abarreon a man from the north

He was big dark friendly

And had a loud voice

His eyes were lighter than his face

The young boys like to follow him and hear him

Shouter the workers who sang songs

While they worked soon home

Man knew everyone in town

Whenever there was laughed in the towsqusquhommer was in the middle of it

After some time people saw misemily and home bowon together on sunday afternoons

They wrote in a buggy with yellow wheelpulled by horses from the townstable at first people are happy

That miss family had found something to care about the lady said

Of course agreeson would never say as they consider a man from the north

Who goes hard labor

But some older people said a true lady would never forget her family's honner

Even when she was sad

They said poor family

Her family should come help her

She had family in alabama

But her father would argue with them a long time ago about the property of her crazy grey

Aunt old lady wilt

Because at that find they dn't speak any more

The alabama family didn't even come to her father's funeral

When people start ted saying poor emily

They began whispering about her

Do you think it's true

They ask each other

Of course it is what else could it be

They wish it behind their hands and the old ladies and silk setting dresses watch on where their windows as miss emilyybugggy passed by poor emily

They said

But miss emily held her had high

Even when people though she had fallen

She acted proud as if she wanted everyone to respect her as the last member of the greesen family

It was like she needed something real to ammind everyone of her importance

Then she bought that poison arthnik this happened over year after people started saying poul family

While her two female cousins were visiting her

I want some poison

She told a druggest she was over thirty now still small and thin with cold proud black eyes

Her face looked tight and tired like someone who lived alone in a lighhouse

I went some poison

She repeated yes missemilwhat kind for at the the rug gest asked are what the best you have

I don't care what kind

The drug is listed some poisonons

These can kill anything up to an elephant

But maybe you need osnic missefamily asked is that a good one asenic yes mom

But you need to say what it's for assembly just stad to him with a head held high

The drugglooked ked away

Got the arsenic and wrapped it up the delivery boy brought her the package

When she opened it at home

She saw the box said for rats with a scol and crossbones on it the next day

Everyone said she will kill herself

And we thought that might be the best thing at first

She started going out with home abow

And we thought she will marry him

Then we thought she will convince him to marry her

But homa said he likes spending time with men and he wasn't the time to get married

He often drank with the younger man at the elel's 's club

When they wrote together in the shiny buggy on sunday afternoons miss emily held her head high

Homa sabbesider wearing his hat and holding the scar with the rains and whip in a yellow glove

Some women in the town began saying it was shameful and a bad example for young people

The men didn't want to get involved

But the women pushed the bactice minister to visit missemily

He went

But he never told anyone what happened

He refused to go back again

The next sunday

Emily and homa drove through the streets again

The minister's wife decided to write to emiley's family and alabama

Soon

Emily's cousins came to stay with her

We waited to see what would happen at first nothing changed

Then we thought they would get married

We found out that emily had bought a silver overset for a man with the letters hb on it two days later

She bought men's clothes in a night shirt

We said they are married

We were happy

Because the cousins seemed even stricter than emily

Then hombarren disappeared the streets had been finished for a while

And we thought he might have gone to prepare for emily to join him or to get away from the cousins

After another week the cousins left town

Just as we thought homa came back three days later a neighbor saw emily

Servant let homa in through the kitchen door at night

That was the last time we saw homa

After that emily stayed inside her servant went out to buy food

But the front doors stay closed

Sometimes we saw her at a window for about six months

She didn't go out at all

It seems like she become more stubben just like her father

When we saw emily again

She had gained weight

And her hair was turning gray over the years

It became a mix of black ham white

And then it stayed a strong iron grey color

When she died at seventy four

Her hair was still that color like an older man's hair

Emily's fut door stay closed

Except for six or seven years

When she taught china painting

She set up a studio downstairs mother sent their daughters and granddaughterters to her

Just like they send them to church on sunday

During this time she didn't have to pay taxes

But then a new generation took over the town

The girls who took lessons grew up

And no one sent their children to emily

Anymore her door closed

One last time

When the town got male delivery

Emily refused to have a male box or house numbers put on her door

The servant grew older and weaker every december

The town sent a tax notice

But it was always returned

Sometimes we saw emily looking out a downstairs window

She lived like this three years quiet proud and strange

One day she died

She fell ill in a dusty dark counse

Only her old servant took care of her

We didn't even know she was sick

The servant never talked to anyone

He probably didn't talk to emily

Ever because his voice was rough from not being used

She died in a downstairs room

In a large old bed

Her grey head rested on a pillow

That was yellow a muldy from age and lack of sunlight

The servant opened the front door

And let the first of the ladies inside

They spoke softly and looked around with quick curious glances

Then the servant walk through the house

Went out the back door

And never returned missemillead's two female cousins arrived mediditely the fununal was held the next day

The whole town came to see misss family lying among many flowers

Above her was a picture of her father looking thoughtful ful women en whispred and everything's felt a bit strange and dark on the porch and lawn

Very old men somewhere in their confederate uniforms taught about mismy y spopos

If she had been in their age

Remember in times

When they thought they dance with her or try to data for these old men

The past did not feel like it was getting smaller instead

The past felt big like a field that never ended all we knew there was one room upstairs that no one had seen in forty years

We knew the door would have to be forced open

After miss emily was buried

They finally opened the door

Breaking the door down filled the room with dust

The room look like a bride or bedroom decorated long ago

Everything was covered indust

The curtains and lights were faded pink color there were delicate things on the dressing table and silver items for a man

But the silver was so old and dark

That letters on it couldn't be seen

Anymore a caller thai lay on the table

And when someone picked them up

They left a clear mark in the dust

A suit was hanging on a chair

Neatly folded below

The chair was shoes and socks

Then we saw the man himself lying in the bed

We stood there for a long time

Looking at his greinning dried up face

It seemed like he had once been hold in something

But now the long sleeper death had defeated everything even love his body was rot in under the night shirt stock to the bed dust covered him and a pillow next to him

Then we notied the second pillow had a dent

As if someone's head had vested there

One of us picked up something from the pillow

When we lean closer

The dust was drawing our nose

We saw a long stand of iron gray hair
