"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."- Marilyn Monroe

the girl

She's trying to fit in, really she is.  She walks around school in a cotton blue button up shirt and dark jeans.  She eats alone in the cafeteria, on the chair closest to the window, hardly anyone normal sits at her same table.  She looks at no one, she talks to no one, she thinks of no one.  She finishes half her apple, drinks half of her milk, and finishes off her potatoes.  She walks out the doors, passes hundreds of kids, and yet talks to none of them. . . . until a boy says hello, she looks up and sees his pretty green eyes.

Will she say anything back?
Will anything come out of this relationship?
Why doesn't she talk to anyone herself?
Who is this mysterious boy?
