In the begining of this story Melinda was at a party and she had gotten drunk and started to wonder around in the forest and a senior started to flirt with her then he rapes her she wanted to say no but she couldnt. She went to call 911 and the cops came and everyone at the party broke out and left. Everyone in the school hated Melinda because the people in her school thought she ruined the party by calling the cops. Throughout this story Melinda has become more cautious and aware about the things around her. Nobody really wants to be her friend because of what had happend at the party so Melindas only friend was pretty much herself she always counted on herself and trusted herself. So Melinda was really dependent on herself. Melinda doesnt talk to others alot in the book because she fears that nobody will belive what she has to say. It also doesnt help that nobody took the time and effort to at least try to be Melinda's friend. Nobody knows what happend to Melinda because she never told anyone about it because shes scared about what people would say or think about her. Melinda meets heather which is her only friend because Heather also didnt have any friends so they share something in common. Until Heather meets the Marthas and Heather sort of leaves Melinda for them. Melinda decided to speak up at the end of the book and she made new friends so everything should work out if you just speak up.
