Cayde: Where is he?
*Siy put her arms on the table and put her head on them, bored*
Cayde: I know! Why we play a game while we wait? How about... I Spy?
*Siy perked her head up*
Cayde: Hmm... I spy... something... blue!
*Siy pointed at Cayde’s eyes, she shook her head. Siy then pointed at the sky, visible through the window. She shook her again. One final time, Siy pointed at her shirt, which had hints of blue on it.*
Cayde: Nope, sorry. I was actually referring to that. *points at a jacket in a store window* Nice try, though!
*Siy put her head down again*

*Zerris was in his room getting ready for his junior year. He put his school items into his new dark red backpack and put the backpack on the floor near his closet.
He then sat on his bed and flopped onto it, staring at the ceiling for a while, wondering about things like his friends, his dad, and his Halloween costume. This year, Zerris would be handing out candy and having recently watched the Halloween movies with his dad, he decided to be Michael Myers for his costume. All he needed was the mask and a plastic knife.
Having lived in the neighborhood for all of his life, Zerris had seen people come and go; old friends, former neighbors... Though his dad had met the Shilen family already, he hadn’t gotten the chance to meet them yet. Zerris enjoyed meeting new people. It was a chance to make new friends and hang out.
Zerris was diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome at the age of 6, right before he entered first grade. Last year, he started working for the community center, teaching and helping people in his community who had Autism and Aspergers (much like himself).*
