a bubble blew from between Cara's lips,
smacking against her skin,
bright pink in comparison.

feet kicked up in front of her,
twirling her hair and doodling for fun.
not listening in,
taking notes from the board.

why are you so different?

she laughed sweetly,

i'm not different,
i just changed.

it was my turn to laugh.

then, why did you change.

she didn't reply at first,
thinking about the question.

i don't want people to only see one side of me all the time.
i want them to see all of me at once.
not just a slice.
