Sofia taught Mrs. Millie how to drive, and as a reward for Christmas, Sofia was able to go home to see her own children. But when she came to Sofia's house, Mrs. Milly wanted to go back, but on the road, she had a problem with her car, and she was not yet willing to accept Sofia's brother to send her back. She said she couldn't accept being in a car with a man of color. So Sofia only stayed with her children for 15 minutes and then left. When Sofia talked about it afterward, Mrs. Millie would instead call her ungrateful.
