how did George and Harris react to the narrator offer to do the packing ? chapter packing for the journey
Dear Student,
When the narrator, Jerome offered to do the packing both –George and Harris took it as an opportunity to sit back and relax. They settled themselves comfortably, George sprawled over the easy-chair and Harris cocked his legs on the table and watched Jerome packing the bag all by himself. As they watched, they smoked and found faults with Jerome’s packing and also made fun of him. They made him reopen the packing by enquiring about items he had forgotten to pack. All this irritated Jerome because he had actually wanted to supervise and instruct them on how to do the packing instead of doing it himself.
Regards
