Personal Narrative: I Am Zero

I am Zero. I do not have a number, I am where the numbers begin. It’s hard to explain. I like the number three, but I don’t like it if it’s with four or five.

No matter how many people have been exchanged, the first person will always be One, followed by Two, Three, Four, Five, and so on.
