However the feelings and thoughts of both characters are debatable. It is obvious that the American man wants Jig to have an abortion, but we are not sure if his feelings and concern for Jig are sincere. A reader would also not be able to tell if Jig decides to go through with the abortion. Early in the conversation there were signs that Jig wanted to talk about the abortion but not have an argument. The first thing we hear from Jig in the story is about asking for a drink. This could show that Jig wants to drink away her problems or gain the confidence to defend her decision. She also begins to talk about the landscape and when she realizes the conversation is turning she gets aggravated and expresses how she was having a fine time talking about the landscape before the conversation turned. She uses the landscape to refer to the baby. Jig became aggravated when she received her glass of absinthe and it tasted like licorice.

This could mean that Jig wanted a baby, but now that she could be possibly having one she’s realizing it may not be what she really
