The Prison of Purity: When Faith Becomes Chains
Standing at the ocean's edge, Livvy clutches her purity ring-a small circle of metal representing years of indoctrination. This symbol of countless youth group meetings and father-daughter purity balls has defined her identity since childhood. Rather than throwing it into the waves, she channels her rebellion into something more purposeful: an "impurity contract." This deliberate rejection becomes her roadmap to freedom. The contract includes milestones most people take for granted: having a first kiss (avoided well into college), getting drunk (not to excess, but enough to loosen control), dressing less modestly, and ultimately losing her virginity by September 17th. Each item represents not just an act but a deliberate step away from shame-based teachings that have controlled her life. What makes Livvy's journey particularly poignant is her choice of partner for this exploration. Cole, her best friend of five years, represents both safety and forbidden desire. Their relationship exists in a complicated space-an atheist boy and a Christian girl maintaining a carefully platonic friendship despite obvious attraction. When her friend suggests adding "telling Cole how you feel" to the contract, Livvy's hesitation reveals another layer of conditioning: the habit of making herself small, of putting others' needs before her own desires. For five years, Cole has harbored intense feelings for Livvy while maintaining careful boundaries. He's convinced himself their fundamental difference-her Christianity and his atheism-makes a relationship impossible, and he's grateful for this barrier that has preserved their friendship. When he reads Livvy's text about having "HUGE news," his immediate fear is that she might have found a boyfriend. This reaction exposes the possessiveness that has characterized their friendship from the beginning. His family situation provides crucial context for this fear. His parents' failing marriage and his father's infidelities have shaped his view of relationships. When his mother announces she's asking for a divorce, his thoughts immediately turn to Livvy-imagining her compassionate response, her prayers, her unwavering support. She represents stability in his chaotic world.
