In my last blog i left off at saying that Collin had raped Nancy. Well the next day after it happens Nancy does not feel like going to school because she thinks everyone will know what happened and say stuff about her behind her back. So Nancy calls El's mom and asks to be excused from school, El's mom accepts. Nancy has been up all night because she just can not sleep because of what happened. It becomes four thirty in the afternoon and Nancy's mom has arrived home. Nancy immediately tells her mom what has happend and her mom starts comforting her and telling Nancy that it is not her fault. The next morning Nancy's mom calls El's mom and tells her to excuse Nancy from school for a couple of days because they are leaving for a while. Nancy and her mom then pack up and start driving but first they stop at Nancy's moms work so her mom can tell her boss that she is leaving for a couple of days. Nancy and her mom keep driving until they end up at some beat down shack on an beach. Nancy goes into the bathroom of the shack and sees a mouse and her and the mouse are at first startled then just kinda stare at each other, Nancy likes the little mouse because right now it seems like her only friend. Nancy and her mom start going out and doing things together to try to make Nancy feel better but the day has come to finally go back home and Nancy is scared to go back into her home, but she does it. Nancy keeps feeling like its her fault that she got raped that she gave Collin the wrong impression. So after feeling this way for quite a while Nancy decides to try and call Collin, she calls his college and the college says that they have no record of a Collin Eagle being enlisted or on the Dean's list. So finally Nancy's mom calls the police and they say that they are going to get every yearbook from every high school for Nancy to look through so that they can try and find this Collin guy!?
So far i can not believe any of this is happening because like i said what i read in the begining was not even compared to what i am reading now. I can not wait to see what happens next!

This sounds like a really interesting story. Kind of the the book i read last year. It was called Crank. Ellie is reading it now. Was the girl dating the guy who raped her? Did she say what she was going to do if she ends up pregnant? The girl kristina in Crank ended up having a little baby boy and she decided that she was going to keep him.
ReplyDeleteHannah,
ReplyDeleteHave you read the book Speak? It's about a high school girl who is raped by a classmate, but she never tells anyone about it. Kristen Stewart is in the movie, you should check it out.

No the Nancy was not dating Collin. And actually no she has not mentioned anything about getting pregnant.
ReplyDeleteSo theres really no record of the man who raped her? Does she know where he lives or his phone number?
ReplyDeleteMegan:
ReplyDeleteThere really is no record. And yea Collin gave her a phone number and told her that the number was to the pay phone in his hall in the college dorm, but she never called it because she did not want anyone else to answer that she didn't know.
When you first started reading this did you ever believe he would do something like this?
ReplyDeleteMegan:
ReplyDeleteWhen i first started reading this book no, I did not think Collin would do something like that. He was caring and alls he wanted to hear about was what her life was and is like. So he was caring, sweet, and everything.
