Jaimes heart nearly stopped beating. Or he had been
broadcasting specifically to Jaime.
In all his life, he had experienced only one time that
a person spoke to him in his head. His mother had
directed her thoughts in response to his declaration
that he loved her, just before she died. He had
certainly experienced people thinking about him. It
wasnt that unusual. When he was introduced to
teachers and other students who were told he didnt
speak, they always wondered what kind of kid he
was and what caused his muteness. But no one tried
to inside-voice speak to him.
