Emily

Ever since his best friend in the world, Emily Friar, had been diag-nosed with a rare and aggress-ive form of cervical cancer a year and a half ago, Miles Lockhart had made it a point to be at the hospital each week-end, summer, and day that he was free to be there for Emily at the hospital. After all, he knew that she needed him dearly.Moving on, today is the last day of school, and Miles' mom had given him permiss-ion to skip today to see Emily. After all, she knew that that is where he needed and wanted to be.
