Jessica
My father is a football coach for a private secondary school in London. I'm his only daughter, Jessica. I'm forever with him during practice, games, whatever it may be. Only I never do anything, he has an assistant that assists in training the boys. Nevertheless , I sit here. Watching. waiting, it doesn't matter anyway. Why am I here? Oh, yes, he won't allow me to leave, and he’s the only one who can enter into the house. So I guess I'm stuck with him. Every hour of every day gets worn out. I see my father every single minute of every single day. If he allowed me to do anything, maybe I wouldn't be such a bitch towards him, maybe we wouldn't fight this much. All he does is talk football. I simply nod and pretend as if I'm listening. …show more content…

"Brian?"

"Yes Coach?"

"You are going to guide the inexperienced lad and aid him on the drills and runs we practice here."

Brian nods again and turns to leave. "Come on Jess; let's go to your home." Sighing, I follow my father home. Brain accompanies the two of us. Brian doesn't in fact live with my father and I. He acts as my father’s son.

After a brief walk from the field to our flat, coach asks me, "What would you like for dinner?"

"I'm not hungry," I mutter.

My father doesn't say anything, he just blows it off. I go up to my room. It’s summer, remarkably I have no homework. All my friends play summer sports, they're always busy. Plus, my father won't let me go anywhere without him anyway. Ever since he took custody over me, he’s not let me out of his sight. I'm still his little girl. My mother wasn't exactly a nice person. She had a ton of problems. She was an alcoholic and drug addict. My father didn't want me in that type of environment. So he took me from my mother. I refuse to talk about it. Now all he's got is I , and the boy’s football team. He pays extra attention to the team than I do. Unless Coach has something to do with the boys, I'm his full attention. Otherwise, he literally doesn't

    I knew it would happen. As much as I tried to stay optimistic, to put off my feelings of suspicion to an old man's negativity, I knew that this case would cost me something more than just my reputation in the town and that didn't even really matter. In Maycomb, reputation is a day by day concept. Sure, we have more than enough of our fair share of immovable gossipers, and drama kings and queens looking for a story to spread. But in everyone's own mind, if you did something stupid, immoral, or just mildly humorous or entertaining, it was the talk of the town and you were judged terribly for a few days, a few weeks tops. Then the whispers, and glances faded to conversations over coffee, and deep inside jokes. My reputation didn't bother me one bit.

  • Dramatic Monologue

    1554 Words  | 4 Pages

    When discussing the poetic form of dramatic monologue it is rare that it is not associated with and its usage attributed to the poet Robert Browning. Robert Browning has been considered the master of the dramatic monologue. Although some critics are skeptical of his invention of the form, for dramatic monologue is evidenced in poetry preceding Browning, it is believed that his extensive and varied use of the dramatic monologue has significantly contributed to the form and has had an enormous impact on modern poetry. "The dramatic monologues of Robert Browning represent the most significant use of the form in postromantic poetry" (Preminger and Brogan 799). The dramatic monologue as we understand it today "is a lyric poem in which the speaker addresses a silent listener, revealing himself in the context of a dramatic situation" (Murfin 97). "The character is speaking to an identifiable but silent listener at a dramatic moment in the speaker's life. The circumstances surrounding the conversation, one side which we "hear" as the dramatic monologue, are made by clear implication, and an insight into the character of the speaker may result" (Holman and Harmon 152).
