    Summary

    “What’s your name?”
    “Ortez,” he responds. Thoughtless. No hesitation. The boy cocks his head to the side. Recording.
    “First name?”
    Even though he knows he has to fight it, he doesn’t. For the life of him, he can’t figure out why he doesn’t fight it.
    “Samuel.”
    The boy nods solemnly, and Sam feels a little like he just sold his soul.
    “Sam Ortez,” the boy says, like he can taste it.
    He crosses the linoleum to Sam’s bedside. Holds out his hand.
    “Isaac Gates.”
