Question 5 • CA-Common Core English Language Arts 10
The story’s main conflict is between Nnaemeka’s choice of wife and his father Okeke’s expectations. Okeke wants Nnaemeka to marry a woman he approves of, but Nnaemeka marries Nene, whom he loves. This disagreement causes the central tension between father and son; it is not mainly about the style of the wedding or Nene’s work as a teacher.
