"Hey" I said as soon as I caught her eye

I was smiling

She didn't reply she just looked at me blankly and took her seat

I didn't expect her to talk

She doesn't anymore

She stayed silent for that entire lesson

Even when the teacher tried to ask her a question

She would shrug

The teacher gave up after one try

I suppose he's bored of it, trying to get her to speak

Why can't anyone see she is broken?

If you let a glass fall it breaks into a thousand pieces

You can't just expect it to repair itself on it's own by leaving it

You have to help place the pieces back together

And even then you can still see the cracks and small holes where pieces are lost forever

I walked with her home and up to her door in silence

She opened the door and was about to close it but kept it open a fraction and I heard the croakiest and in the smallest voice

"Thanks"
