Ad libitum [116K]

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • <em>"Father. You've got to get rid of the idea that that's Gregor. We've only harmed ourselves by believing if for so long.  "</em>
  • <em> "Grete was becoming livelier. With all the worry they had been having of late her cheeks had become pale, but, while they were talking, Mr. and Mrs. Samsa were struck almost simultaneously, with the thought of how their daughter was blossoming into a well built and beautiful young lady."</em>

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Grete Samsa is the sister of Gregor of the story in Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. Confronting the change of his sibling into a cockroach, Grete develops from being a modest young lady to a solid young lady, in the initial segment of the story Grete has a powerless identity and gives other a chance to abuse her however as the story proceeds with Grete's identity ends up more grounded.

Grete is the main person from Gregor's family that comprehends Gregor and can confront him as a cockroach, and her new obligations are what influence her certainty to develop, she is the one that understands that Gregor needs to go, and her folks see her change into a functioning and friendly young lady.
