After a week of painful lunches where all they would do was talk about people that didn't interest me, I decided to make a clean break for it. They asked no questions. I told no lies.

Part 2-12: The Punnett Square Not one person in the exotic mix of my family gene pool has ever shown any obvious signs of having what August has.

And the few people who were there didn't seem to notice me at all, though that may have been because they didn't see me. I sort of hid behind Mom as I walked.

Part 1-4: Christopher's House Christopher's House 크리스토퍼 네 I was really bummed when Christopher moved away three years ago. We were both around seven then.
