Sagot :

The idea that shows that self-control is difficult for Yen is in the sentence "Grabbing the end of the string of cash, he pulled from there three coins, and with a hop and a jump was out in the street again."

How can we come to this conclusion?

  • Yen had a serious stomachache after eating too many sweets.
  • His mother forbade him to eat sweets again.
  • He saw a man selling sweets on the street and couldn't resist buying them.
  • He didn't have any money, but he stole some coins that his mother kept for emergencies.

Yen knows that eating candy is not good for him and leaves him in very difficult pain to bear, but he likes candy so much that he can't control himself when he sees a candyman.

Even knowing that it would make him sick, that he had no money, and that his mother forbade him, he couldn't control himself, going so far as to steal money from his mother to eat candy.

This question is about the short story "The Candy that is not Sweet."
