Chapter 219: Kylie

There were about a million of them milling around, talking and laughing as they waited for class to begin. Most of the students had some sort of physical impairment that Kylie could spot – coke-bottle glasses or a limp or a protruding tongue. A few showed no scars on the outside, and Kylie knew that for these students, the hidden scars were probably even worse.

The scars you couldn't see were the hardest ones to get over, something she knew all too well.

"Okay, everyone, listen up!" Adam was standing up at the front of the barn, and almost instantly, every pair of eyes were trained on him, and the constant hum of noise disappeared. Kylie was impressed – Adam had obviously been working with these kids for a while now to garner that sort of attention so quickly. "I have a helper here today who I want to introduce you to. Kylie, can you come up here?"
