Can I Do It Now?

By Eli Smiles

"To feel safe, I need to know exactly what to do next. That's why I ask: 'Can I do it now?'"

For Tom s, navigating the world means managing a constant flow of loud and confusing stimuli. In his world, rules are not restrictions-they are the vital boundaries that provide him with peace of mind.

This first installment of The World of Tom s series follows him through his daily routine, where simple tasks like taking a bath or watching TV depend on one crucial question: "Can I do it now?".
