All the while their mothers are pressuring them about wedding plans…<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve got to meet up with your mum and Olivia. Wedding plans?\u201d Dannel reminded him. They\u2019d played six rounds of rock, paper, scissors before Osian finally lost.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…and Dannel’s father continues to push himself into Dannel’s life.<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t understand how non-autistics seemed to easily forgive and forget.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

His mind kept throwing out tasks to accomplish. Dannel closed his eyes, trying to slow himself down. It occasionally felt as though his brain were a carousel careening into warp speed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It was fine. <\/p>\n
