Background

No one ever notices her.

She just sits there, quietly and listening.

She laughs along to the jokes, smiles to show the fact she’s trying to be apart of the social group.

She tries to speak up, but simply gets talked over or ignored.

Her smile falters slightly and she pulls herself back.

Fading further and further into the background.
