  particularly miffed  11  that the two of them often didn’t include her in their

  conversations. It just seemed that they perpetuated  12  an aura of superi-ority that Alexa didn’t aspire to.

  Alexa pulled the visor down and flipped open the mirror, studying

  her reflection. She pulled the rubber band out of her ponytail and her

  shiny, shoulder-length brown hair came tumbling down, covering her

  green eyes. Growing up, Alexa had always been a bit of a tomboy—she

  was not inclined  13  to obsess about her looks the way so many of her con-temporaries  14  did. Her attitude had begun to change only recently, when

  she realized that it was not incongruous  15  to be both athletic and con-cerned with your appearance. This past year, Alexa’s first year of high

  school, was really the first time that she started feeling good about the

  way she looked. She had started running on the track team and it was as

  if she had undergone a transformation  16  from an awkward, shy tomboy

  to an attractive and confident 16-year-old.

  Alexa took her hairbrush out of her backpack and fixed her pony-tail as they drove past Alexa’s house high on the hill overlooking Cayuga

  Lake. “It looks like the lawn could use a little work,” Alexa’s father noted

  as he glanced at the house the three of them had shared up until two

  months ago, when he took a modest  17  apartment in downtown Ithaca.

  Alexa maintained her silence as she wondered what her father was think-ing. His demeanor  18  didn’t reveal anything, but Alexa wondered if he

  could really feel that detached  19  from the house they had all shared for so

  many years.

  11  Miff: to put into ill humor; offend

  12  Perpetuate: to make perpetual or to cause to last indefinitely

  13  Incline: to lean, tend, or become drawn toward an opinion or course of conduct

  14  Contemporaries: one of the same age or nearly the same age as another

  15  Incongruous: lacking congruity, not harmonious, incompatible

  16  Transformation: the act, process, or instance of transforming (to change in composition or structure)

  17  Modest: unassuming, unpretentious; limited in size, amount, or scope

  18  Demeanor: behavior toward others, outward manner; conduct

  19  Detached: exhibiting an aloof objectivity; disconnected, removed
