Ernest Hemingway’s “Cat in the Rain” and “Hills Like White Elephants” describe a theme of difference between husband’s desires and wife’s desires.

Do you like the ending of the “a question of dowry” or “cat in the rain”. Give reasons to support your answer. What do you think will happen to Sivasothie or the American girl.
