Their eyes were watching God: 14

"Tea Cake's house was a magnet, the unauthorized center of the "job".

People would always go to Tea Cake house after work or even before work. They would meet in groups over there. Tea Cake would play his guitar for his friends to keep them entertianed. Also they would crack jokes. They would also talk about the money they made. People knew that Tea Cake was a good person from work. They had no problem meeting over his house. Soon their house was full of people every night. Also they would tell stories.


"Sometimes Janie would think of the old days in the big white house and the store and laugh to herself."

Janie life has changed in so many ways since she left Eatonville. The towns people would go crazy if they seen how she was living now. Janie doesnt have a problem with the way she lives now. The towns people would constantly talk about her. From her cloths to her living conditions. Also they would talk about her hair. Janie is happy about the life she has now with Tea Cake.
