Doorways

Junebug was swallowed whole when she walked back into her first grade classroom after the night of her loud and sudden loss. The doorway into the her classroom felt so huge and when she walked into the room, it swallowed her in one big gulp. Thankfully Junebug, although tiny, was strong and she kicked and screamed until the room spit her out in bits and pieces.

Junebug tried over and over again to put herself together again but doorways always had this way of making her fall apart. Either they swallowed her whole or she felt like she could barely squeeze through and when she did, she felt like she didn't really fit.

Doorways are still tricky for me.
