Kes... a new life

Billy buried Kes and felt his world tearing apart. Her mother didn’t support him when he needed her; his brother made him feel the strongest pain a child could feel, so Billy didn’t have anything else to look for at home.

He walked aimless for a mile or two to overcome his pain. While he was wandering downtown, Mr. Farthing saw him from across the street. He approached Billy and asked him what happened. Billy told him about Kes and that he didn’t want to go home.

Billy didn’t know that this talking would it be the beginning of a new life. Mr. Farthing took him home and introduced him to his wife and daughter. He told them that Billy was going to stay with them and that he would be treated as part of their family.

Before realizing, Billy found himself sitting on a comfortable couch, drinking a cup of tea and forgetting what he thought was the most awful day of his life. He didn’t realize that this man could see the sweet kid he had inside, a kid who didn’t have the chance to be loved until now.
