I don't think she wanted to be in that situation. It was frustrating for her to be her. I remember we were at the school computer, and again, I was just asking her random questions just to get to know her better. I noticed that we had a lot in common based on her answers. I remember asking her, and I would ask her questions out loud. I said, oh, what did you have for dinner last night?

And she let me know that she wanted to respond, so I held her wrist, and she held out her pointer finger and started typing that she had cream of wheat with applesauce on top. And I thought, oh my gosh, that's what I had for dinner. I said, I didn't think anybody but me put applesauce in their cream of wheat. Weird. But I was elated that we had this weird thing in common.

Maybe the same day or maybe the next day, again, we were chit-chatting in the school library on the computer, and I asked her a series of questions, and one of them was, What'd you do last night? She responded that she watched the Yankees game. And again, I got excited because at that time I was watching the Yankees. That's when Derek Jeter was on, Giambi.

And we spent a few minutes talking about the game. Oh, did you see that play? I can't believe Jeter did this. You know how it is when you watch something and somebody else watches it. It's kind of fun to talk about highlights. And I remember that afternoon during the dismissal, her father came to pick her up, and I said, oh, Jamie and I are both Yankees fans, evidently.

And he looked at me with a puzzled look on his face, and I said, didn't you guys watch the game last night? And he said, no, we're not baseball fans at my house. And I was taken aback. And I said, oh, maybe she watched it in another room. And again, he was kind of like chuckling. He said, oh, the only thing Jamie likes to watch is like Teletubbies. And she watches like little kiddie cartoons.

And I thought, oh, God, that's weird. I started thinking that something was different because little things that we were on the same page with, they kind of weren't adding up. And that awareness came when he didn't know what I was talking about with the baseball. So then something in my head told me there was just something wrong How would she know these things?
