May

May is an interesting character because the moods of the sisters seem to surround her. May is the sensative type who takes the world on her shoulders, and wheeps for those who mourn. To be honest, I was really upset by the passing of May and really didn't see it coming. Why hadn't the wall helped her with the emotions? It had helped many times before...just not now. And the way May went along with it all puzzled me. She drowned herself, a painful slow death. It was as if she decided to take on the pain of Zach being arrested to an extreme, and she hurt herself. Call it creptic or not, but I wonder why she chose such a slow way to die?
The reactions of May's death were just as I imagined...time seemed to stand still with the passing of an innocent soul. May was the type of person that could not hurt a roach, and led them out of the hhouse with marshmellows, yet she was willling to hurt her sisters by taking her own life. Even if May wasn't completley normal, I think that if anyone could withstand a passing of someone close it was her sisters. June and August had experienced the death of May's twin and both were able cope. May on the other hand could not cope with the passing of her sister, and it left her unstable.
