In this excerpt from James Patterson's The Angel Experiment, the narrator addresses Max, emphasizing the importance of perspective in defining relationships like friendship or enmity. The speaker suggests that such labels can depend on how one views a situation, highlighting the complexity of personal connections.
The narrator then affirms their deep affection for Max, claiming to love her more than anyone else. They assert authority by stating they are the one asking questions, and Max's role is passive, merely experiencing the journey of the remarkable character, Maximum Ride. This underscores themes of loyalty, love, and leadership within the story.
