Part 9 How Do You Feel? Internal Monologues

Max’s POV I couldn’t protect her. She went to Michael, why him? They don’t like each other that much. I could kill Josh. She is so hurt, how can she get through this? I will help her. I will. I won’t leave her alone. Why did she go to him and not Maria or I or even Isabel or Alex for that matter, why him?

Maria’s POV My best friend and my sometimes boyfriend. She went to him. Not me. Or even Max. Why my spaceboy? How can she break through his wall but I can’t? Do I even know him? Do I have to be raped to get through to him that I love him?……I love him.

Mr. Parker’s POV My baby. My little girl. Some man has hurt my baby. I always thought it would eventually be Max that would…how can this happen to MY baby?

Mrs. Parker’s POV This is all my fault. I’m the one who set her up on this date. I hurt my baby.

Isabel’s POV My brother is unraveling before my very eyes and there is nothing I can do about it. My first real friend is laying in a hospital bed somewhere being operated on and there is nothing I can do about it. My other brother won’t talk to me and I don’t know how to help him or my other friends. I have powers but how can I be so helpless. All I can do is try to hold the pieces of my brother together; I will just hold him.

Alex’s POV Liz once told me that she could come to me with anything even with her biggest problem she came to me, come to think of it that problem happened at this hospital too. I can’t do anything this time though. Maria is so quiet. I wonder what she is thinking. She is never quiet, why now? Max is falling apart. I wish I could go to Isabel. I know she needs me. Max and Michael can’t do anything. The last time I saw her this distraught was when Michael was sick, but then she had Max to hold onto now she has no one. I wish I had enough arms to comfort her, Maria, Liz, and even Michael and Max.

Michael’s POV She trusted me. She depended on me and I still couldn’t protect her. She is so hurt. God, I hope she is going to be okay. Everyone is hurt. I wish…I…I wish I could go to Maria. I hurt her though, I betrayed her with her best friend, she probably hates me again. Maybe Liz can help her understand. Why am I thinking about myself, Liz is the one that got hurt and I put her there? She trusted me. She depended on me….
