In “The Birthmark,” Georgiana is wanting to please her husband because of the love that she has for him despite the controlling factor he brings upon her. She at one point cries in the middle of the night because her husband was not satisfied by the way she looks on a level that she cannot help because she was born with the birthmark on her face. In “The Story of an Hour,” Mrs. Mallard in the book’s sense does not care much for her husband at all. Chopin states that, “she would live for herself.” What Chopin means by saying this is that Mrs. Mallard would not have to be living for someone else and to please her husband; she is now free to live on her own time and follow her own rules. Death is not considered to be a haunting process; death can be painful until it is accepted and satisfied that the victim is now approaching pain-free
