"You have a big mouth, you know it? Rachel blew me off at prom giving me some bull crap story about how I raped you. You know that's a lie. I never raped anybody. I don't have to. You wanted it just as bad as I did. But your feelings got hurt, so you started spreading lies, and now every girl in school is talking about me like i'm some kind of pervert. What's wrong, ugly, you jealous? Can't get a date?" -page 193 "I said no." -page 195
After this past summer and year, I have learned to stick up for myself. To say something. To say no. Maybe if I would have said no the first time, it wouldn't have happened. I made sure it didn't happen the second time though, and everyone knows it. I suddenly became popular because of the last inccident. I'm getting all of my old friends back, because they finally understand me.
I am so happy for Melinda! Everything ended up turning out good in the end. She went through some very hard times, and I look up to her for being able to get through it basically all on her own. She never told anyone about the rape until later in the book, and I'm glad she did because it's what she needed. She also stuck up for herself, and that was the best move she could have ever made.
