Her Friend
Ali was like Kerry as he was living with cerebral palsy, although he could talk. He was fun and always grinning, with the best jokes Thad had ever heard. As Thad watched the two interact, he realized his best friend laughed more with Ali than she ever did with him.
They had inside jokes that went over Thad’s head and had the wittiest comebacks for each other’s comments. Just standing there made him feel out of place.
