Katie is lost, she seems breathless, no words can define who she really is except a swimming prodigy, who has lost a brother, and is trying to find out who she really is.
Katie “I am swimmer by birth. I’ve been on some kind of team since age three, and I’ve always been the fastest. I swim every day I can feel myself getting a little better” (21)
Will “Will has fallen into a trance on the diving board, splayed on his back with a lit cigarette burning downward, its ashes breaking and falling into the water.” (22)
Drew “His hands are still on my face, and I can feel him shaking a little. “I really like you”, he says.” (104) “I’m crazy about you, Katie… Every time I’m away from you, you’re the only thing I can thing about.”(128)
Madeline(Mazzie) “Mom, please can she come? Mazzie is my best friend.” (155) “She says she’s her best friend. I didn’t want her to go through this alone—” (157)
