I have to write an essay from a short story. I came up with a thesis question but I am not sure how to compose my story and what I should include. I am afraid that I will contradict myself with my thesis question. The story that I have to write the essay from is a bit vague. You have to read in between the lines in order to assume what the writer is trying to imply. How I can guide myself through this?

What is the story that you are to write the essay on? Maybe there are some people here who know the story.
