THE HIGHEST TO THE LOWEST

Prompt: The Alligator Story

1) Ivan- He received the highest amount of respect from me, because he had nothing to do with the whole ordeal. He remained her friend and didn’t bash her, but he continued to stand his ground. I believe that it’s okay to disagree with a friend the way that he did and continue to be friends. I also think that he made the correct decision.

2) Gregory- I think that this was a man that was in love and he was just heartbroken to find out that the love of his life engaged in such dishonorable activities. He just didn’t want anything else to do with her. If you look at it from another point of view she did do it to be with him, but that just wasn’t acceptable. I honestly don’t think that any reason could’ve been good enough for him. He didn’t want anyone that would do something of the sort.

3) Abigail- She really doesn’t get that much respect from me, because you don’t engage in sexual activities for the trade of anything. That was just completely wrong by itself. She could have waited for another opportunity to see him or found a better way. She literally sold herself for a trip across the water. The worst thing about the situation was that she was actually happy that Slug beat Gregory up. She actually found pleasure in it. This was something that she caused and someone else had to pay for it. That was just selfish and she could have taken Gregory’s response and handled it another way.

4) Slug- This character was completely out of line for involving himself in the matter in the first place. I really don’t understand how he got into the picture anyway. I know that he had feelings for Abigail, but that didn’t give him the right to put his hands on anyone. He receives no respect from me at all.

5) Sinbad- Last but not least is Sinbad. He made Abigail have sexual intercourse with him as a payment for a service. People of any kind of integrity, does not act in this matter. This was just way below the standards of any person and he should be ashamed of himself. He portrayed himself as a person who buys sex and that is not acceptable in this society.
