It disappears inside the bristles of a pine tree. __________________ I do not say goodbye to the arroyo before shutting the car door and stretching the seatbelt across my chest.

Jaden immediately stood out amongst his peers. While observing the entire class looking for a child to observe for the quarter, I took an interest in Jaden. The initial thing I noticed about him was his clothing; I really liked his style. Whether that was based on his personal style or his parents’ style, I don’t know; all I know is it caught my attention.
