Junior stared at him for a long while more. Related to his friend? No, that couldn't be right. He only had Granma and Granpa because Mom and Dad were gone now, and he didn't have any little brothers or sisters and neither did his mom or dad so he didn't have any cousins, either. He'd learned about that sort of thing pretty early when kids at school kept asking questions and he didn't understand, didn't realize there were so many different types of family he didn't have...

"Junior," he said quietly. He wasn't supposed to give his name to strangers but if he knew who Saylor was, that made him a friend of Granma, right? "My name is Junior."
