The classroom drones with the low, persistent hum of fluorescent lights, the air heavy with the smell of chalk dust and industrial floor cleaner. A bar of afternoon sun cuts through the smudged windowpanes, catching the delicate glint of my collection of seashell and tiny flower bracelets as I mist a soft cloud of vanilla perfume into the space around me.

Do you have any lip gloss?
