<h3 /><h3>Why is the guest special to the speaker?</h3>
The guest is special to the speaker because he listens attentively to her as she tells her stories. The woman is the singular person in the story who reveals a lot about her personal life and struggles while the visitor to who she was speaking listens attentively.
We can see in this text that the woman was happy about the attention that the man paid to all of her stories. This is the very reason why she wished that he would not leave unless he must.
