Start:

I come home late from school on purpose so I wouldn’t have to help mum with the beet. So I had to do without my tea and straight out to the field. “You can have tea in the dark, “ mum said, “but you can’t pick beet in the dark.”

[... .... …]

End:

“Yes I am, “ he’d say, “and what about it?” They don’t marry today with the same love. “Jarvis, come and make my coffin.”
