It’s been at least five minutes since I’d gotten dressed, but now that I’ve seen Alexa in the sunlight, I can’t seem to pull myself away from the mirror.

Just look at her eyes! They’re the same color as mine were, hazel with a starburst of green. There are just so many little things that have changed from who I was last night, and yet when I really look at her, really see her as a person, there’s more of myself in Alexa than I first thought.
