The Storm By:Kate Chopin

I believe this story is about happiness within a family, but the wife is unfaithful to her family. With the storm rolling in, Babinot and Bibi and stuck at Friedheimer's store. Babinot and Bibi think about their wife/mother the whole time they were at the store. They seem to be a happy family, then Alcee came up riding upon a horse. Alcee has a great marriage with his wife, Clarisse. When Alcee came up to the house, and saw that Calixta was home alone, he thought that he wanted to kiss her. Bobinot and Bibi come home to a happy wife or so it seems with Alcee writing a letter to his wife saying that he misses her. In this case, I believe they stayed together because of Bibi, because in most situations that is the case. Nowdays, divorce is a lot more common then it used to be, it was really bad to get a divorce years ago. Knowing that Calixta and Alcee commited adultery and didn't tell their spouse and acted like nothing was wrong, made me think of how many people have done that. I guess everyone has their secrets whether they are married or not.
