shayanizyan23: Hughes writes that as she leads Roger out of her home, "the boy wanted to say something else other than “Thank you, m'am” to Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones." It is not clear what this would be. We can surmise that Roger wanted to communicate how thankful he was for someone showing care to him.
