Read the following sentences from “Day of the Butterfly.”

“Oh,” said Miss Darling dubiously. “Well you ought to try to be nicer to her anyway. Don’t you think so? Don’t you? You will try to be nicer, won’t you? I know you will.” Poor Miss Darling! Her campaigns were soon confused, her persuasions turned to bleating and uncertain pleas.

When she had gone Gladys Healey said softly, “You will try to be nicer, won’t you? I know you will,” and then drawing her lip back over her big teeth she yelled exuberantly, “I don't care if it rains or freezes.” She went through the whole verse and ended it with a spectacular twirl of her Royal Stuart tartan skirt.

Learning Guitar

“It's no use. I’ll never get this,” Holly said. She was sitting on the floor with her back against a couch. A guitar lay in her lap she shook her left hand in the air. “My fingertips hurt.”

“You can quit now,” her mom said. “But if you do, it’ll be harder to start back up again. I think you have a decision to make.”

Holly stood up and leaned the guitar against the couch. "I have decided. I’m going to get a piece of pie to help me decide." She sighed and walked into the kitchen.

Sat at the table eating her dessert. Her dad walked in. "Is this a break from guitar practice?" he asked.

Holly's mom was in the kitchen baking a pie and listening to her daughter's struggles. She took the pie out of the oven and placed it on the counter.

"Yeah, I'm done for the night," Holly said.

"Why so down?" her dad asked.

"I don't know. I just don't think I'll ever play well."

"No one's asking you to make records like the Beatles," her dad said.

"But I should at least be able to play a couple of chords halfway decently. And besides, my fingers hurt."

"Well," said her dad. "There is no getting around the fact that when you have calluses and are not a guitar player. Come over here," he said as he walked toward the couch. "Play me what you know."

Holly rose slowly, going to the couch, sitting on the floor and picked up the guitar.

"Give me a G," her dad said, and Holly played the note on the guitar. "That's pretty good," he responded. "Now give me a D . . . Not bad . . . I'd say you’re coming along."

"Really?"

"Yeah, really. For someone who's been playing for just one week, I'd say you're ahead of the game. Now you need to work on the calluses."

Holly rose. "I'm going to call Josh and tell him that I'll keep at it for a while longer." She then left the room.

"Since when did you know what a G or a D should sound like?" Holly's mom asked.

"I don't know anything about guitars and chords," he said. "But I do know a thing or two about our daughter."
