"Beat me!" he heard her cry. "Throw me down and beat me, you dirty little coward!" A moment later she rushed out into the dusk, waving her hands and shouting-before he could move from his door the business was over"(Fitzgerald 137).]]> 2019-03-11 13:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/20mlucas/3ysev8m26oe7/wish/339943175 20mlucas https://padlet.com/20mlucas/3ysev8m26oe7/wish/339943176 "Daisy, that's all over now," he said earnestly.
