    Summary

    The first time Henry sees Alex race, his brain can’t understand what he’s seeing. He’s 14 and Alex is 13, and Alex is smaller than everyone, but so much more confident and brave.

    He pushes Philip wide and overtakes on the last lap, pushing the throttle down on his kart to cross the finish line a full second ahead of Philip.

    “He’s bloody reckless!” Philip shouts, ripping his helmet off once he’s out of his kart. Like second is unacceptable.

    Henry stops watching Alex celebrate.

    Philip’s hair looks dumb.

    Their dad laughs, dropping an arm around Philip’s shoulder. “He’s not. He just beat you.” He looks over at Alex. Henry looks, too, taking any excuse he can. “We’ll have to watch out for him.”
