We rushed to the school. Nya was driving of course. And Cole was explaining.

"So you see, I may have told my father you sing and he got interested and begged me to ask you to join-" I cut him off.

"Y-you told your dad I sing when no one was around r-right? Because otherwise......" I blushed a little mentioning my hobby of singing.

"Uh not really. I just said you were a really good singer and we could use you in choir......?"

"Cole!" I facepalmed.

"Wait what's your dad going to say when he finds out Meadow is shy and doesn't want to be a part of it?" Jay jumped into the conversation.

"It's not that I don't want to join it's just I....I mean I only wanted....uh well it seemed......ugh why is speaking out your feeling so hard!" I blushed as I fumbled through my words.

Nya turned towards me.

"So you do want to be a part of it or no?" she asked.

That's the thing about me, it's hard for me to say no. I just want to make everyone happy. I can't help but feel guilty if I see someone sad.

"Yes, o-of course," I said only wanting say what they wanted to hear,"I-I'm going to get some air. Please e-excuse me." I said as I walked onto the deck and I put my arms up on the rail, running on of my hands through the clouds we passed by.

I let out a sigh.

They probally know my problem.

"Salutations Meadow, what's seems to be troubling you?" I turned and say Sensei Garmadon.

"I'm just too introverted to speak up for myself. Maybe I shouldn't be a ninja. I'm an egghead, almost died, and just had one of my secrets exposed by Cole, isn't it clear you got the wrong ninja?"

I looked back down and saw villages passed by below us and I backed away from the rail, my acrophobia taking over.

Lloyd's father put his hand on my shoulder.

"It's what's using you back from getting your true potential."

I looked at him, confused. The next words he said will stay in my head forever.

"You're scared of what other people think of you."
