I wring my hands together and bite my lip. The whole class is staring at me. I want to go sit in my seat and sleep all of class, but my teacher has decided to introduce my to e v e r y o n e. I blink hard, then blink again. The lights have gotten brighter, I swear. "Everyone, this is . . ." the teacher looks down at her paper, trying to figure out how to say my name. Gosh, I hope she gets it right. "This is Ozzy, everyone! She's going to introduce herself!" I try very hard not to cry. Of course she shortened it because she didn't want to mess up the pronunciation. "Um . . ." Yeah, the lights are definitely to bright. "My name is Ozera, I use she/her pronouns . . . um . . . and I like reading? Yeah." "Oh, honey, I think you forgot something!" the teacher places her hand on my shoulder. I shrug it off and look at her inquisitively. "Don't you want to tell everyone where you're from?"
