The message flashed: "Mr. Roberts is now following you." A strange, compelling pull tugged at Daniel. He felt like he needed to own this new advantage. He felt that he was at the start of something new.

He deleted the old, silly posts. He started posting about his goals, his ambitions, his deep passion for playing the guitar. Every action had a purpose, every post a calculation. The world was his, to mold as he wanted.

In class, he would be extra kind, extra willing to participate. He would make sure that Mr. Roberts noticed him. He knew that the future would be different now.
