Tea Cake found that he was part of small army that had been pressed into service to clear the wreckage in public places and bury the dead. Bodies had to be searched out, carried to certain gathering places and buried. Corpses were not just found in wrecked houses. They were under houses, tangled in shrubbery, floating in water, hanging in trees, drifting under wreckage.
About the middle of the fourth week Tea Cake came home early one afternoon complaining of his head. Sick headache that made him lie down for a while. He woke up hungry. Janie had his supper ready but by the time he walked from the bedroom to the table, he said he didnāt bālieve he wanted a thing.
Well, she thought, that big old dawg with the hatred in his eyes had killed her after all. She wished she had slipped off that cow-tail and drowned then and there and been done. But to kill her through Tea Cake was too much to bear.
The gun came up unsteadily but quickly and leveled at Janieās breast. She noted that even in his delirium he took good aim. Maybe he would point to scare her, that was all. The pistol snapped once. Instinctively Janieās hand flew behind her on the rifle and brought it round. Most likely this would scare him off. If only the doctor would come! If anybody at all would come! She broke the rifle deftly and shoved in the shell as the second click told her that Tea Cakeās suffering brain was urging him on to kill.
She tried to make them see how terrible it was that things were fixed so that Tea Cake couldnāt come back to himself until he had got rid of the mad dog that was in him and he couldnāt get rid of the dog and live. He had to die to get rid of the dog. But she hadnāt wanted to kill himā¦. She made them see how she couldnāt ever want to be rid of him.

hey had begged Janie to stay on with them and she had stayed a few weeks to keep them from feeling bad. But the muck meant Tea Cake and Tea Cake wasnāt there. So it was just a great expanse of black mud.
Ah dun been tuh duh horizon and back and now Ah kin set heah in mah house and live by comparisons. Dis house aināt so absent of things lak it used to be befoā Tea Cake come along. Itās full uh thoughts, āspecially dat bedroom.
They gointuh make āmiration ācause mah love didnāt work lak they love, if dey ever had any. Then you must tell āem dat love aināt somethinā lak uh grindstone datās de same thing everywhere and do de same thing tuh everything it touch. Love is lak de sea. Itās uh movinā thing, but still and all, it takes its shape from de shore it meets, and itās different with every shore.
