In the short story “The truth about dino girl” one of the main themes explored was revenge. During the story katherine bumps into andi, the girl katherine’s crush was dating, and drops her notebook opening up to her drawings of jamie’s tattoo. When katherine asks andi not to say anything, she says “Are you serious? Do you think I’m afraid of that?” and keeps going telling her that jamie doesn't care about her and that she doesn't stand a chance with him.

I woke up in a cold sweat. Don’t do this to yourself again, I told myself. He’s gone. He doesn’t want you, he chose her. I still remember the day you told me you loved someone else.

But I couldn’t make myself hate either of you, especially not the person who once brought me so much happiness.
Beyonce uses pathos, the first of the three appeals in her song by using very descriptive phrases. When she states, “I’d listen to her, `cause I know how it hurts,” Beyonce is telling her audience that she understands what it is like to be hurt, and that if she were a boy, she would treat her women better because she could understand where she was coming from. This tugs at the listener’s heart because you can see that she has been emotionally hurt from a past relationship. Also, many people can relate to what she is disclosing. It is human nature for people to get emotionally damaged in a relationship and therefore her feelings are empathized. She also uses syntax by the way she orders her words by telling a story. If the song was not in story form, it would not produce the great impact that it does.
