My cousin Kristen and I went out with my father on a large four-wheeler…

Even after all these years, I’d expected you to have matured slightly.” Raja’s mouth fell open. “I’m older than you.” “Not in Helix years,” Charlie replied, “and that’s all that matters in this empire.” The boy narrowed his eyes. “I’ve been alive for like a hundred years. That counts for something.” “Raja,” I reached beneath the seat and took out a tablet. “Stop proving Charlie right.” I handed it to the boy and opened it up to a game. It took him a few second to figure it…
