Character: Find Me

 The scene I chose was from the book Find Me. Find Me is about a girl named Wick. ""Find Me" Theses are the words written on Tessa Waye's diary. The diary ends up with Wick. But Tessa's just been found... dead. Wick has the right computer-hacking skills for the job but little interest. Until her sister, Lily is the next target. Foster child. Daughter of a felon. Hacker girl. Wick has a bad attitude and sarcasm to spare. But she's going to find this killer no matter what. Because it just got personal."(Bernard cover) I chose this scene because it shows the conflict that the main character, Wick goes through.


"Why do you care? Tessa Waye didn't know you existed." My eyes fly open, meet his. I'm not sure what I was expecting. I just laid a mess at his feet. How was he supposed to react? With reassurance? With confidence? That's exactly what I wanted. I just didn't realize until this minute. But I'm not looking for a hero. There's no such thing. I'm just looking for some help. "We were friends... once."
"There's more to this. What aren't you telling me?"
I don't-suddenly can't- answer.
Griff shakes his head. "Yeah, I don't do the work if I don't know the deal."
"It's Lily." I push my feet hard against the ground so I don't sway. "Lily's his next target. I need help getting to the guy."(Bernard 167-168)


I chose this scene because it shows desire conflict. Wick wants to save Lily but she knows she can't save Lily by herself that's why she's turns to Griff for help.This also shows Wick's character traits.  It shows that she doesn't exactly know how to ask for help. It also shows that she doesn't believe in heroes. This shows Wick backing down and letting herself ask for help for the first time in the book.
