"Natalie, hello in there?" Sammy says, snapping me back into my imperfect life.
"What? I love my new sunglasses too," I pull out my cheetah patterned shades. I put them over my eyes. Tears start to come. I open up the bubblegum Sammy gave me.
"I need to go to the bathroom," I lie to getaway.
"Meet me here when you're done," Sammy says.
"Okay," I say out of habit.
I run to the bathroom. I splash water into my face. I spit the gum into the toilet. I lift the sleeve of my sweater and bite three times in the same spot. A bruise starts to form. Ouch... I hurt myself again. Dumbass.
