It's not fair.
Riley shut the door to her room and buried her face in a pillow on her bed. This was standard behavior for the last week now, whenever she got home. Barely talking to anyone else in the house, not even to be snide; she'd say as little as she could to them and hide in her room until it was time for her to come out for dinner, and she would eat a little bit ("I'm not hungry") and then she would hide in her room again as soon as they let her.
"It's not fair," she said into the pillow, muffled, unintelligible.
The tiniest thing would set her off, at this point, and she didn't want people getting mad at her for getting mad at them. She was scared of being around her friends, because then might cry in front of Dalia, and that would probably make her sadder, and that would make Riley a bad friend. She didn't like locking herself up in her room doing nothing like this. She didn't want to go outside or do anything, either. She didn't want to be anywhere.
