About Me
- On a seemingly ordinary Tuesday morning, our narrator Bobby wakes up and goes into the bathroom to get ready for school… and that's when he realizes that he can't see himself in the mirror.
- Yup, young Bobby has just woken up to find that he's invisible. And it's not the product of a weird dream.
- He goes downstairs to tell his parents about it. At first, they think it's a trick, but when they feel him, they realize that their son really is invisible now.
- His mom wants to take him to a specialist directly, but his dad is more cynical and thinks that the media and the government will be all over this, and he doesn't want his son carted off by the CIA.
- His parents agree that the best thing to do is to tell no one, which agitates Bobby. He threatens to just disappear on them (ha), but then his mom starts to cry and he loses his nerve.
- Bobby tells them where he is, but he's still totally freaked out by this whole situation, which makes sense. After all, what is he even going to do with his life now? It's not like he can go to school.
- He goes up into his room, determined to figure this out. His whole life depends on it.
