Extend the Story - Add a Room

You looked up, saw Lisa, and began to cry.

"Let it out Alex..." she said, hugging you. "Just let it out."

It took a few minutes of crying for you to calm down before Lisa released you. "Feeling better Alex?" she asked with a worried expression.

You slowly nodded, saying, "Thank you. If you hadn't come I would have cried in front of the entire cla...." Lisa stopped you.

"Its okay for girls to cry." she said, gently.

"But I'm not a gir..." you stop as she took your hand and pulled you towards one of the mirror.

"Look in the Mirror and tell me what you see." said Lisa, smiling. "I see a cute 13 year old girl who was crying in the girls' room."

You looked at the mirror without saying a word. She was right, you looked like a normal 13 old girl and guessed that a person who didn't know you would see you as a girl.

"You are right." you said, your smiling face returning.

As you looked in the mirror again, you spotted something that you didn't like.

Blushing you turned to Lisa. "Could I borrow your make up?" you asked, barely above a whisper but she seemed to have heard it.
Smiling she opened her bag and took out her make up kit an began her work.
