"Zoe, are you ready? Your friends are here," said her mom on the other side of the door.
"I'm getting ready. I'll be down soon." She walked over to the mirror and stared at herself again. "How can I go out like this?"
She never wore pink in her life. Never. But the more she looked at herself in the mirror, the more comfortable she became with the idea of wearing clothes like that.
She shook her head. "What am I thinking?! I've gotta get back to normal as soon as I can."
Outside, someone honked a car horn. She looked out her window and saw her friend Athena's car, but didn't see who was driving. They were waiting for her and getting a bit impatient.
"What am I gonna do?" she asked out loud.
