Especially after receiving the news of Mallard's death, Louise “cried at once,” “with sudden, wild abandon” (63). So far I have not suspected anything wrong with her reaction, although Louise “did not take the news as many women do” (63). The description of her alone in the room is the turning point. The presentation of what he saw when looking out the window strikes me. In Louise's mind, “trees quivering with new spring life” (63). I remember the difficult moments I experienced in my life, nothing in the world could seem right, there is no happiness and positive things. But why would Louise point out “the delicious breath of rain,” “the sparrows chirped in the gutters” (63) at the time of her spouse's death? Those words foreshadow the ironic happiness Louise feels in being free. After understanding the underlying meaning behind that word, I was shocked by his actual reaction and disappointed by his view of marriage. I couldn't believe someone could look at love and marriage so negatively
