Sophia, a quiet student who preferred books to people, was engrossed in a novel when she received the alert. It was Ms. Miller, her literature teacher. Sophia rarely posted. A quote from a book or two. She felt suddenly self-conscious. She hadn't expected to be scrutinized. She felt a vague irritation. She closed her book and stared out the window, a familiar feeling of solitude twisting into something else, something she couldn't quite define.
