"Chloe, you're doing it again."
"Doing what again?"
"You know what I'm talking about."
"I know, I know. It's so hard not to give in, you know. To not let mindless teasing bury deep, not let someone else's problems become yours, not let the college board eat your brain and very self away, not let disasterous moments eat away life."
"Take a stand. Don't let it make you into something you're not. I know you don't want to let it bring you down, but you are letting it."
"I know..."
"Stop it."
"I'm trying; it's too hard."
"No. It isn't. Stop it."
"I'll keep trying. I promise."
"I won't stop bothering you about this. I promise."
