“I’ll let you in on a little secret,” I say as I cross the room and sit on the edge of his bed. “Something most people don’t realize until they’re older. But everyone is a little weird. Some people hide it more than others, but it’s true. Everyone is weird.”
“All you should care about is being yourself,” I say. “No matter who that person is. Some people might not like you for who you are, but a whole bunch will. I promise.”
