The narrator feels a sense of irritation as he realizes he has fallen prey to Simon Wheeler's storytelling antics. He is frustrated by the obligation to listen to the tales surrounding Smiley's gambling. While he remains attentive, he is not entertained, nor does he display patience or interest.

We often sit on the porch, playing with marbles while exchanging beautiful crystals... Literary techniques (figurative language, imagery, point of view...) are meticulously applied by the author to enrich both the narrator’s and main character's perspectives.
