The story is about a lady named Cleofilas, who moved to Texas when she got married. Behind the house they moved to there was a creek that she had heard some stories about and she became curious to learn more. Cleofilas began to be beaten by her husband, she had one kid and another soon to be born. When she goes to the doctors they notice all the bruises and want to help Cleofilas escape, that's when she meets a women named Felice who is going to help take her back home. " Felice was like no women she'd ever met." (paragraph 82)
I believe that she meant it as a compliment because Felice is a strong and very independent women, she gives Cleofilas the strength to leave her abusive husband. Cleoilas just wants a ride and at first Felice feels a little nervous about it but knows its not a bad thing to do.
I think Felice is a very caring person who is someone that Cleofilas needs to have around her and is the perfect person to have met. Felice is very strong and independant herself and a great example of how Cleofilas needs to become.The fact they have never met before yet Feliceis still wiling to help her out, shows alot of compassion to be able do to something like that for someone is very big.
Felice acts so open and kind she is never rude to Cleofilas, she is always being herself never changes who she is which is amazing. I think Felice was trying to show Cleofilas thats its okay to be herself and that she doesnt have to hide who she is,and that she didnt need to be scared anymore.
In conclusion I really think that Cleofilas ment it as a compliment when she says that felice was like no other women she had met. Felice had gave her the strength to do what she needed to do for herself which was to get out of her abusive relationship, and I wish i can meet someone like her because she is so kind.
