Title: Enigma

Word Count: 100

Challenge: Luke

Admitting that he's always felt out of place is something of an understatement.

He guesses that it all has to do with the "middle child syndrome" but, in his case, it could also be a case of the "dorky child syndrome," or maybe even the "adopted child syndrome."

Okay, so the last one hasn't been confirmed, but he is highly suspicious.

In any case, Luke muses, some might have considered him something of an enigma in his family, if it weren't for the fact that his sister's odd behavior of late has made him feel more normal, albeit no less out of place.
