"The Storm"

This blog is about the short story “The Storm”. This story is entertaining yet, quite disturbing. Calixta had a perfectly healthy marriage and a wonderful son. However, when she was left home alone, a storm hit and her ex-boyfriend shows up at her house and they end up making love. Alcee, her ex, also had a girlfriend who was on vacation. When Calixta’s husband, Bobinot, and her son, Bibi, got home, she acted as if nothing unusual had happened. Alcee did the same when he spoke to his girlfriend. Oddly enough, Alcee’s wife, Clarisse, acted suspicious when Alcee had called her.
