I’ll be seeing you

By: Lurlene McDaniel

Carley Mattea has been in the hospital most of her life. She had cancer for a few years. Then a tumor somewhere by her nose. When the doctors operated on Carley’s face it left her face permanently caved. Then this Christmas she broke her leg rollerblading. Let’s just say Carley doesn’t have very good luck. Then one day she meets a boy named Kyle Westin. He is temporarily blind because he was being dumb with his friends. When Carley discovers that he is blind, she sees an opportunity to friend him. But then she starts to like Kyle, and he likes her. When Carley is allowed to leave the hospital, she still has to come back for Physical Therapy, but she decides that she can no longer see Kyle. He is going to be better soon and Carley doesn’t want him to find out the truth about her. But then one day when Carley thinks she might call Kyle and try to explain why she didn’t tell him her secret, he does the unthinkable. Kyle had borrowed his uncle’s plane and made a sign that said “Carley, Be Mine. K.W.”. he still loved her even after all they went through. It’s true that looks aren’t everything. Because if you judge people by how they look or act you might not find a true love.
