Oral Presentation - Jeniah Harry
Jessica: “Oh, it’s two left turns then a right on Elmo Street.”
DAYS AFTER
Ricardo: “Oh hey, you’re that nice lady that gave me directions a few days back”
Ricardo: “Oh, I’m no stranger anymore, my name is Ricardo, but my friends call me Ric”
Ricardo: “Okay Jessica, how old are you if you don’t mind me asking.”
Jessica: “Ughh ok, what about you? You look pretty much older than me”
Ricardo: “So Jessica, what are you doing here at a park all alone?”
Jessica: “I’m just taking a break from home, it’s a bit toxic”
Ricardo: “I see, any boyfriend? A gorgeous gal like you must have a man to treat you right”
Jessica: “Sure”
Ricardo: “Can I have your number Jess? I know it’s a bit weird, but you don’t have to feel sorry for
me either. I don’t want to pressure you at all”
Ricardo: “Thank you, I just want someone that I can talk to and I feel like I can trust you”
Jessica: “Oh, well I have to get home before my mom freaks out”
NEXT DAY
PHONE BUZZES
Ricardo: “Take a risk and sneak out when they fall asleep, be fun”
Jessica: “Okay”
Jessica: “Hi”
Ricardo: “So I have a change of plans for tonight, my mom just called me and said that she needed
me to come fix the television for her, so do you want to come along for the ride? It’ll be just for a
while”
Jessica: “Oh no, I’ll wait here for you to come back”
Jessica: “I do trust you, I’m just not comfortable with this idea”
Jessica: “Okay”
Jessica: “I thought you said that you came to your mother, there isn’t anyone here, there’s no
television”
Ricardo: “Even if you did nobody would believe you, you’re just the 16 year old girl who sneaked out
of her parents’ house to meet a boy that you don’t actually know the real name of.”
AT JESSICA’S HOUSE AFTER RICARDO LET HER GO KNOWING THAT NOBODY WON’T BELIEVE HER
Jessica: “Hey Kelly, you’re my bestfriend and I can tell you everything right?”
Kelly: “What?!”
Kelly: “How is that your fault, no matter what led up to it, nobody deserves to get raped”
Jessica: “I know, but I put my trust into a total stranger, and I knew he was weird at first but I
thought he would change”
Jessica: “He said his name was Ricardo, but I don’t think that’s his actual name, all I know is that he
raped me yesterday merciless”
Kelly: “You have nothing to be embarrassed about, go tell your parents what happened right now”
Jessica: “He’s tall, about 6’5ft, darkskin and he also has a huge moustache, I didn’t notice anything
else because I didn’t think it’ll lead to this”
Jessica: “This is really heart breaking for, I feel so gullible and naive to put my trust in a total
stranger”
Kelly: “No, you’re not naïve, you’re just a very kindhearted person who just wanted to be friends
with someone who had the wrong intentions”
Jessica: “I wish people wasn’t this cruel, I don’t think I can trust anyone anymore”
Kelly: “You’ll get through this, It takes years of healing, late night crying, regrets, doubts and
forgiving”
Jessica: “I hope I can really get through this, thanks bestfriend for everything”
Kelly: “Your welcome, now let’s go talk to your parents so they can contact the police”
