"Another Perspective of Everyday Use" By Morgan Murphy

Narrator: Dee enters very mad and aggravated.
DEE: What makes Maggie so important that she gets the quilts! They mean more to me then they ever will to her.
HAKEEM-A-BARBER: Your mother promised them to her. Their is nothing more important about her. Its just that your mother promised the quilts to her, and she doesn't want to break her promise.
DEE: I don't care if my mother "promised" them to her I deserve the quilts.
HAKEEM-A-BARBER: You don't deserve anything. Maggie never gets anything. This is the one item that she deserves and your gonna take that away from her? You might know more about the quilts, know more about your heritage, and might have bein closer with your grandparents, but Maggie deserves this. Don't take it away from her.
DEE: Whatever you say. You would take her side on this. She doesn't deserve this, she gets everything.
Narrator: Awkward silence and frustration fills the air.
