There are many sentences and phrases in “Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin that suggest the ending to the story. The first one is the first sentence of the story. It reads “Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with heart trouble”. (193) This sentence makes the ending fit together when Mrs. Mallard dies of heart disease in the ending. The second clue I found was when the narrator said “She did not hear the story as many women have heard the same.”(193) this made me wonder why she didn’t react to her husband’s death the way many other women have reacted to their husband’s death. The third clue is the sentence that says “There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully.”(193) this sentence caught me off guard because the poor lady has already went through the death of her husband and now something more was coming for her. The last clue that suggests that ending says “She was beginning to recognize this thing that was approaching to possess her.”(194) This gave me the insight that something bad was about to happen in the ending.
