Everyones story is different, and everyone goes through different things, problems, "expirences" that mold their life, and their personality.
When is it okay to admit to yourself that what you did id wrong? this question haunts the main character in Story of a Girl, she know hat everything is wrong but was she sexually harassed?
She doesn't know. She was thirteen, he was seventeen, illegal but on her own free will. So many people around the world are raped and sexually harrassed everyday. Every one worries about what would happen, if it were to happen to them.
For Denea that is herr reality, as it is for so many others. sometimes i feel as if there is something I could bedoing. But at the same time, I feel as though there is nothing left to do except sit o the th sidelines and watch the horrible truths of our world unfold.
Maybe there is something you can do, just making people aware is a start. In the book her father finds them together, but instead of protecting her, he is ashamed and walks away from the daughter that needs him. He leaves her when she needs him most, and he doesn't even know what happened.
She could of been being raped, and he left her to fend for herself. When you try to forget about something like this, you are not solving the problem; only ignoring it.
When you pretend something didn't happen, it still did. You are just blocking it out, trying to ignore reality because the make believe world is so much better then the real one.
But it doesn't have to be with this, if you face the problem, and accept it, help others around you. It won't haunt you, you can live free.
