Neat scenario and really suggests a lot going on in the protagonist’s mind that may be getting in the way. Some grammar or typo things in that second paragraph.
This is intriguing, and I like the way it’s written.
There are a couple of grammar problems in the second paragraph. It should probably be “That’s Caden. He’s the one…” Then, “Ones about unusual abilities— and, most often, about cluelessness.” You might consider replacing “Ones” with “Stories”, to avoid confusion/messiness.
Anyway, nice work! I’ll be interested to see if you continue.
