Explanation:
"Hills Like White Elephants" by Ernest Hemingway is a short story revolving around the conflict between the two main characters. <u>They are a couple - apparently, unmarried -, and she is pregnant. However, their lifestyle will be greatly affected if she has the child. They live an easy life, comprised mainly of traveling and drinking, as the excerpt reveals:</u>
<em><u>"He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where they had spent nights."</u></em>
<u>The passage above reveals they travel a lot in each other's company. We do not know much about their lives besides that revelation - what their professions are, why they have the means to travel so much, etc.</u>
She is tired of such a life. She sees it as meaningless, pointless. He, on the other hand, does not want to be disturbed or concerned by the existence of a child. He defends the idea that they are happy the way they are, and that nothing should change.
