Chapter 19

I didn’t enjoy this routine anymore. I’d always thought of myself as a loner, but these days, being alone for too long made my skin crawl.

I’d imagined that moving to a new neighborhood would set off a series of changes, yet aside from crossing different faces on the street, everything remained the same. I was cut off from people. Couldn’t relate to them. Even my soccer buddies avoided talking with me lately. People must have sensed something was off inside, because they looked away from me. At the store. In the street. I was a good looking guy, but I was turning invisible.
