My face grows hot.

Big what?

Big boobs?

I start to look down, but stop.

I know what I’ve got.

Nothing.

Big hair?

No.

A Big Mouth?
No. The phrase implies something plural.
Big—?

I don’t dare finish.

Who wrote this rude thing anyway? With a Sharpie, no less?

I rub at the black ink. First with my sleeve, then my bare fingers. It’ll never come off.

Well.

I flush the toilet — out of habit, because I haven’t done anything — walk out of the stall, stand at the sink, and let water run over my hands. It runs cold, then warm, then warmer, then hot.

As much as I want to move, shut off the tap, I can’t. I stand there, looking in the mirror, as my hands turn pink and my eyes brim with pain.

Big.

Big ears.
