There are many wonderful stories created but the two stories I like best are “The Necklace” and “Voice Tape.” I like this two because it can happen in reality and it can move every people’s heart in some ways. Moreover, both of the stories give a moral lesson on how to handle our life positively and how we must face and overcome every problem we encounter. These two stories also give significant to our responsibilities in life and we must not just rely on other people even it is our family member. The story of “The Necklace” happened in Mr. and Mrs. Loisel’s house, Mrs.Forester’s house, a night at the party and a shop in the Plais Royal. In this story, I think Mathilde is the one narrating the story due to the fact that the whole story revolved around her. While in the story of “Voice Tape” it happened in the house of the taxi driver and he is also the one narrating the whole story. There are four main characters in the story of “The Necklace”. Mrs.Mathilde Loisel, the wife, she is ambitious and self-centered. Mr.Loisel, the husband, he was hardworking, faithful, kind and understanding. Mr.Rampouneau, Minister of Education, the person who invited Mr. and Mrs.Loisel in the party and last Mrs.Forester, friend of Mathilde, lend her the diamond necklace.
The part of the story where the conflict happened is when Mathilde lost the necklace and Loisel tried to search for it in many places even in the police headquarters, to the newspaper to offer a reward and to the cab, but he discovered nothing. Compared to the “Voice Tape”, there are many characters in the story. Taxi driver, the person who got the clutch bag that contained three old t-shirts and tape that left by the male passenger. Mente Biglang-awa, husband of Dely, working in abroad to be of help in paying his family’s debts. Dely, a faithful, loving and caring wife and parents. Bestre, eldest and thoughtful brother of Mente and other loving family member of Mente: grandmother, grandfather, son and daughter. In this story, the conflict is whether the taxi driver look for the owner of the tape and return it, or he will just pay no mind to it and let it be. The story of “The Necklace” is revolving around Mathilde, she was ambitious and never been contended in their status in society. One day, they were invited in the party by the Minister of Education, so she asked her husband to give her some money to buy new dress and because they don’t have some money to buy jewelries, she just borrow the diamond necklace of Mrs.Forester. But after the party, when they got home Mathilde notice that the necklace was lost, so they need to work hard to be able to buy the replacement of the diamond necklace that worth 36,000 francs.
