I looked at her face and then I knew.“You’re me,” I said.She blinked and looked down at me like she just noticed me. She looked at me for a mome...t with her eyes sweeping all over me. “That’s right,” she said, eventually. “I’m you and you’re me.”“You’re tall,” I said. “You got old.”She nodded.“How old are you?” I asked.“I just turned 13,” she said.“Wow,” I said with my eyes all big.“I’m only 6,” I said. “I can’t imagine me being 13.
