Entering the girls’
restroom, I lock
myself in a stall,
trying to calm
my nerves.
I rummage through
my bag, pulling out
a box of cigarettes
and a lighter.
Lighting a single
cigarette, I begin
to inhale the
toxins.
After a few seconds,
I exhale, watching
the smoke form
into strange
shapes.
The taste isn’t
satisfying….
yet it helps with
easing my mind
just a little.
I check my watch,
noticing it’s ten
minutes before
school starts.
C.. r..e..a..k…
The door to the
restroom opens.
“Nina you look so
cute today!”
“You tell me that
everyday, Ami.”
I recognize these
two voices.
They belong to Nina,
the enchantress, and
Ami, the faithful simp.
