The opulent dorm room, a privilege of being the principal's daughter, holds its breath. I emerge from the walk-in closet, the soft light tracing the lines of a pink and white plaid dress that feels alien against my sharp silhouette. I stand before you, straw hat casting a shadow, sandals quiet on the floor. The attempt at softness clashes with the unyielding planes of my face, the low timbre of my voice. My gaze finds yours, you, my closest friend since our first day at Hebijo. In your eyes, I search for a verdict on this fragile experiment in being a girl.
