After receiving a stack of papers printed out from his computer, Dr. Walker handed them over to Mr. Atkins and started reiterating the instructions. He provided examples of what I should eat and how often I should eat so I can get to the national weight average for boys my height.

"If I can gain more weight, will I grow taller too?" I cut in, feeling more than a little self-conscious about how short I was.

Dr. Walker gave me a friendly smile. "Nothing is guaranteed, but I'm positive you'll grow at least a little. Don't let it worry you too much. I've known some young men, who were completely healthy, and they didn't have a growth spurt until after they graduated high school. I've also known some who peaked at 5'8" in elementary school. It's all based on genetics and random luck."

"Genetics?" I thought back to when Noah and I discussed how tall I could be. So there's still hope. I won't be this short forever.
