(No name, no age, her gender is the single one defender.
She is so fine, so delicate, so tender around with her lying cruel contender.
No trace of thought, well what can you expect from the weaker gender.).

The girl in the story "Hills like white Elephants", by Ernest Hemingway in the beginning seems to be very immature, almost an airhead, unconfident; a character without any character. She always depended on the American man she was with, who seems to make all the decisions for her. She basically eat out of his hand. For example, she says: "What should we drink? Could we try it?" The girl could not even choose a drink she wanted without asking the American man. There was not a single trace of challenge in her voice no matter what the American man said. She could almost pass for a human pet that does everything the master commands. Although the girl's behavior and her attitude toward the American man suggest that she was very timid and unconfident in reality this was not the case. .
For example the girl was very immature and the American man on the other hand seemed well refined. Most readers get this impression in the beginning of the story, but toward the end you come to realize the true situation. The American man turns out to be most unprepared for the real world, a world with a family. He simply wants the baby gone from their relationship like a bad dream, so when he wakes up everything would return to its old routine. The girl on the other hand realizes that an abortion is not as simple as the American man makes it sound. The man says: "They just let the air in and then it's all perfectly natural. The girl did not say anything." She understands that any operation is not natural and that the killing of a baby would also occur. The American man blames the baby for making their relationship unhappy, but the girl understands that the baby has nothing to do with it, it is not even born yet.
