“What is unusual about the sentence, ‘ The quick brown fox
jumps over the lazy dog?’”
Rebecca sighed. Getting Ethan halfway ready to talk to girls was going
to be a challenge. His awkward
mannerisms and lack of eye contact were difficult to ignore.
Forcing his face over, she made him
look into her eyes. “Not the best line to start a conversation with. Try again.”
She watched him turn and stare
off into the distance. He had quiet moments where he processed. She took that
time to examine him closely. If she didn’t know he was Autistic she would have
thought he was simply shy, maybe even conceited because he actually was very
good looking.
It startled her when he turned and faced her. Looking into her eyes, he
smiled, “You’re the most beautiful, annoying person I have ever met.” Blushing,
she remembered what she liked most about Autistic people: their honesty.
