Buttons

Hello no one, sorry I forgot about you. I had an inspiration:

********

Lisette stood in a room with 4 white walls, and one black door. In front of her stood 3 girls giggling to themselves before Lisette entered. They turned to look at her. The one in the back quickly looked away, the fluorescent lights flashing against the buttons sewn over her eyelids. The girl on the left pointedly glanced at the girl on the right, showing off her buttons. The thread was black. The girl on the right judged Lisette with her buttons, sporting green thread. She still gave a judging look despite her eyes being shut. Whatever she saw seemed to satisfy her at the moment. Lisette held out her right hand. As she open her fist she revealed two identical buttons. The girl on the right took them with slight hesitance. Lisette held out her left hand, holding a rose. It was dead, now black. Again the girl took it. Lisette looked at them for a moment. The girl in the back looked annoyed, and stared off at a wall. Lisette turned around, and walked through the black door, leaving the three in the room.
