Adeeva is standing at the front of the stage to stage right fixing her clothes. Vikki, Emma and Jackie are all still at the back of stage left.
Adeeva- spoken to audience Being a teenager in 2006 is tuff. You have to juggle being a senior, the work load, O.P's, boys. But what's even harder is when you have to juggle your religion with your social status.
Vikki, Emma and Jackie start moving, whispering to each other.
Adeeva starts walking towards stage left slowly, stopping to tie up her shoe lace.
Vikki- Hey girls, look over there. Points towards Adeeva- the other two girls' look- it's amazing she can see where she's going with that thing over her head.
Adeeva stands up straight and looks at the floor
