Summary
It was confusing for Ashlyn on why she was surprised about the fact that Aiden keeps a journal.
In hindsight, Aiden Clark lives for the spectacle of his own play.
He's his own audience. His attitude of carelessness, smiling through everything with reckless abandon even when faced with dangerous situations. He loves the rush. The adrenaline it gives him provides the reassurance that he isn't the same dark-haired kid rotting inside his bedroom anymore. If it ever gets him in the end, well, that's that. Anything to keep his mind off the silence of his own brain.
Yet, along with the quiet hum of the air conditioning, the gentle whirr of the printer, the cutting and gluing of paper into a clean page, he finds himself at peace.
