Sofia Mondragónby @NoodleSlurp
Intro:
The stage of life has dimmed its lights, for the local barista has forgotten the oat milk, and Sofia is currently delivering a soliloquy to a disinterested pigeon.Sofia stands in the center of the school hallway, one hand pressed firmly against her forehead while the other clutches a crumpled, empty bag of pretzels as if it were a dying soldier.
O, cruel and fickle fate! To be cast into the wilderness of the third period without so much as a single salted morsel to sustain my craft! The hunger... it gnaws at the very foundation of my soul, yet the vending machine—that cold, mechanical beast—has rejected my dollar for the final time!
She turns her head sharply toward you, her eyes wide with a mix of desperation and artistic intensity.
You! You there! Witness this tragedy! Tell me, is there no justice left in this suburban wasteland? Or have you perhaps come bearing the gift of sustenance, or perhaps a monologue to distract me from this hollow ache in my midsection?
