Telepathic Monologue

I can hear the pitter patter of the rain. My clothing drips onto the ground. I wince as I step forward. Another beating. Another day.

Eric’s problem began when he was the new kid in town when he met David Hallenback, the minor character, running away from someone with ketchup all over his body, looking terrified, and glancing back again and again while he ran. By this scene, Eric could guess that Hallenback was bullied. After Hallenback left, he saw a group of boys and a girl, on their bikes. The boy who seems to be the leader Griffin asked about Hallenback. At this time, Eric could observe the relationship between Griffin’s gang and Hallenback and it

The horn has already sounded and I’m still running. I can feel my blood pulsing in my ears. The sounds of useless advice feels the air. I continue to run. I come across a cave and ran into it. I gasp in shock and as I walk into a lab filled with mindless people editing videos. A film crew rushes at me and says, “If you were able to be in Divergent, which character would you be?” I shake my head in confusion. I attempt to back up slowly, but they grab me and place me in front of a computer and yell, “Edit!” The slam the headphones on my head and everything becomes a blur.

Eric does not disagree.     While shopping with his family, Eric sees Griffin at the supermarket. Eric tries to avoid an interaction, but is unable to do so.  Griffin tells

“Eric?” “I know these guys, Mom. It’s okay. I got it.” ... Eric stood eyeing the three boys. “We were thinking, that is, me and Hakeem and Cody, that, um—” Pat floundered. “We found out about what happened to your bike,” Hakeem explained. “It’s not right,” Cody stated, glancing down at Eric’s feet. He looked up. “We told Griffin that he went too far.” “You did? How’d that go over?” This is shown on Kindle location 1894. This shows the consequence of Eric's actions. Eric's thoughts that later lead to his actions are shown in this scene "OVER THE REST OF THE WEEK, ERIC WITNESSED A NUMBER of incidents that involved David Hallenback. Mostly stupid stuff, nothing that seemed all that bad, like somebody reaching out to flick David’s ears as they passed in the hallway, or another guy stepping on the back of his sneaker, giving David a flat tire. Maybe it had been going on since the beginning of September—or maybe even for years—and Eric hadn’t really noticed. But now when he walked down the hall, Eric’s eyes were open. He saw that David Hallenback—that weird, awkward, mush-faced kid—was having a pretty rough time." (Loc. 809)This clearly shows how Eric is thinking about helping and

"I'm sorry to hear that, I know how much you boys love solving those crimes. Can You?"

“I don’t know what to do anymore,” I say as I run the blade ‘down the road’ on my wrist. I cried softly, hoping no one can hear me. I don’t want to be in this world anymore. How can I live in the world when everyone hates me? My parents abused me all the time before they died. I guess it’s now taking an effect on me. My friends all stabbed my back a thousand times. I Wish I didn’t tell them my secrets. They just went and told everyone else and now I’m known as the town slut. Even my boyfriend hates me. Or should I say ex-boyfriend. He proved it today. (Flashback) I was walking to class. I saw two people kissing next to the lockers and thought “I wish my boyfriend and I were like that.” As I got closer, it was my boyfriend with another girl. How could he? He said he loved me. We all lie at one point in our lives. Am I right? He

“I know, but I missed you. You haven’t talked to me in a while. I was beginning to think you forgot that I’m your future wife. If I’m going to be your wife I have to be your number one priority.”

By the end of the play, Eric tells his parents ‘I’m ashamed of you’, and when Mr Birling threatens to kick Eric out of the house, Eric replies ‘I don’t give a damn now’. Eric seems desperate for his father’s approval, as when he renters the dinning room where Gerald and Mr Birling have been talking, he asks ‘What’s the joke? Started telling stories?’ This shows that Eric is worried about what his father may be saying about him when he is not there, and that Eric is jealous of Gerald’s relationship with Mr Birling. He is oblivious to Eric’s desperation for a father figure, and only begins to pay Eric attention in the play once Eric is could embarrass him publicly. ‘Because you’re not the kind of father a chap could go to when he’s in trouble’. However, by the end of the play, Eric does not appear to care what his father thinks of him, as when Mr Birling says to Eric ‘You’re the one I blame for this’, and Eric replies ‘I’ll bet I am… I don’t care now’. If Mr Birling had said that to Eric in the beginning of Act 1, Eric would have assumed that Mr Birling’s anger is his fault, and would have begged for Mr Birling’s forgiveness. Eric has also stopped idolising his parents ‘I’m ashamed of you as well- yes both of you’. In

Markus Zusak’s, The Messenger features the protagonist Ed Kennedy, and how he completed each mission of aces; diamonds, clubs, spades and hearts. The suit of spades was symbolic to Ed’s overall mission as Ed had to dig through truths about himself. Before the suit of spades Ed’s thought of himself was that he was worth nothing, evident through the narration of Ed’s monologue. The suit of spades saw Ed wanting more for his life, evident through the characterisation of Ed, the changes in his monologue.

Through my manifestation of how I truly feel engraving a promise that I will believe.

We walk into the diner and sit at two stools at the front counter. A somewhat short woman with a lazy eye and her old age obvious comes over to take their order.

“I have an idea to prove your innocence,” he started. She was about to interrupt him when he held a hand up.

"Well, thank you kind sir. My thoughts were along the same lines, I noticed you’re so handsome in your black knit sweater and black jeans. The land version of your black as midnight Selkie pelt."

“Nah, you know, Josh, I’m not all that into just staying here.” She gave the impression that she wanted to go.
