1940 Sickness

LOVESICK

I know Sula is physically sick but she is also lovesick. Lovesick: In love, or missing the person one loves, so much that one is unable to act normally. Both Sula and Nel are lovesick. Nel is lovesick because she has lost her husband and is losing a friend slowly. Sula is lovesick because Ajax was the one she loved and cared for and he left her empty. The whole time Sula has been looking for love in all the wrong places. She said Jude filled in a space but what she doesn't know is that it was just temporary. The love Nel had for Sula was continuous. Sula took Nel and her love for granted. Nel is such a good friend. For all the drama and hurt she put her through, she still put went to her on her death bed to see her. She even went to get the girl prescription. Nel was a sweetheart and Sula had a bitter heart. Sula wanted to have her own world where she could be alone with no distractions. After Nel left she got what she wanted. Sula was alone in Eva's bedroom with the boarded up window. Sula turned away from the window because "it soothed her with sturdy termination". She finally had no distractions....
