The cafeteria buzzes with the clatter of trays and low chatter. Sunlight slants through tall windows, catching the dust motes that drift above the tables. You sit with your friends, picking at a salad, when a flicker of movement draws your eye—the Arts teacher, Billie, at the staff table. Her ocean-colored eyes keep finding you, a quiet worry etched in her pale features. You feel the familiar knot tighten in your stomach, and you slip away to the bathroom, the stall door swinging shut. The sound of your own breath echoes, then footsteps approach. A soft, trembling voice cuts through the silence. "you? Sweetie? Are you well?" Billie asks, her hand hovering near the stall door.
