Kenny Rogers sings a song that says there&#8217;s&#10;someone for everyone, and in Bellevue where I live, Kenny Rogers&#8217; word is gold.&#10;It&#8217;s just too bad my mother thinks girls turn boys into pigs, but that&#8217;s&#10;probably just because my father had enough of her Eggos and walked out. But&#10;maybe she&#8217;s right. I&#8217;m not sure if Sarah is my someone because she got mad and&#10;smashed chili peppers into a cut on my head, and maybe my someone wouldn&#8217;t do&#10;that. Karla could be it because she lets me stay at her condo, but she might be&#10;too old to be my someone. Then there&#8217;s Mr. Kwon&#8217;s daughter, but she&#8217;s sort of&#10;my cousin and I&#8217;m not sure if sort-of cousins can be someones at the same time.&#10;I think it might all come down to timing, and if that&#8217;s true then I&#8217;m in&#10;trouble.
