I'm what they'd never guess

Is it a genetic thing? Telepathy? No. First I was very subconcious of people’s emotions, shortly aftward hearing people’s voices in my head. At first it was pretty sweet you know. There were never any pop quizzes for you, you always knew who liked you, et cetera.

But you know…now it’s just a real pain in the ass. No! Dale began, Now that Jacob is moving Karen is going to sit there. No! No no no. Alas, Dale. You lose. I decided to tune out Karen’s annoying glee of being so close to Dale. So have you heard anything good yet? I heard Kaleigh ask me. She was the only one who knew I was telepathic, and she had the tendency of asking me things through her head. I yelled across the room, “No. Same old same old.” I grinned as people stared at me, answering a question never asked. Seth stared at me the most, There’s something different about her…but what? I smiled mischeviously.

It was interesting hearing people’s guesses of what they thought was different about me. Seth’s can’t be any different.
