Alice Bell: A Narrative Fiction

Alice Ball came into the world on July 24, 1892, in Seattle, Washington. Her grandfather was a famous photographer and her father was a lawyer. She had two older brothers named Robert and William, and a little sister named Addie. She lived in Hawaii for two years and left Hawaii in time for her grandfather’s death in 1905. She then went to Seattle High School and graduated in 1910. She got a pharmaceutical degree from the College of Washington and co-authored a paper published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. She returned to Hawaii and went to the College of Hawaii in 1915 and came out with a masters degree in science, specifically the field of chemistry.

Alice runs away again, this time on her own. She struggles to survive, and only cares about drugs. After a few weeks, she breaks down and calls her parents. She goes back home with them. Again, she swears off of drugs. The kids she used to hang around are pressuring her to do drugs again, and even start bullying her. This time, however, Alice stays off of drugs. She deals with the bullying. She meets and falls for a nice guy and she’s closer with her family. Things start to look up when she’s drugged. Her family believes her, but she is sent to an insane asylum. It’s very difficult, but she gets through it and is let out.

Outside, a deep silence fell over the neighborhood. This silence crept into every household. Members of the community had a guise of anger and pain expressed on their faces. Everyone locked themselves inside, to lament such a tragedy that has brought sorrow to a twelve years old’s family. Parents fell on their knees with tears in their eyes. This last murder represented the final straw. So many of their own had been murdered by the malicious, metallic, monsters that were supposed to be the defenders of their community. They felt insecure, threatened by the

She is cute, fresh, perky, and flirtatious while she is also steady, attentive, sharp, and patient. These are the characteristics of Mary Anne Bell, the girlfriend of Mark Fossie in The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien. This book is a collection of short stories about the experience of United States soldiers in the Vietnam War. One thing that the men carry into Vietnam is innocence, but for the ones who survive, this is not something that they carry home. The ninth chapter of the book, titled “Sweetheart of the Song Tra Bong,” embodies this loss of innocence through the story of Mary Anne Bell told by Rat Kiley, a medic in Tim O’Brien’s company. While at first it seems that this chapter serves as an amusing relief to the darkness and death of the war stories, this chapter about Mary Anne actually reveals her as a symbol of the arrogance the Americans feel, but quickly forget, during their service in Vietnam.

November 1995 A childish giggle popped gleefully from Alice’s lips. Alice swung me by arm. We were in the grass fields. The skies were drizzling a delightful gradient of deep blue, lovely purple, and bright pink.

As my fifteen-year-old roommate falls to pieces, panic rises in my chest like a leaping flame. She lets out muffled screams and chilling sobs as she buries her face against the pillow. I kneel beside her and whisper reassurances. “You’ll be okay.” “No one will hurt you.” I pray she hears me but I know she doesn’t. She is trapped somewhere else - somewhere she revisits every day, like a bad song stuck in her head for life.

Suddenly my phone ring, it was my younger sister, Amanda, who was seventeen at the time “You need to come get me from Amber’s house”, is all she said very quietly. “Wait it’s three in the morning and you want me to come get you?” Amanda started quickly talking about being at Amber’s house, a party and cops.
