Right and Wrong

By KaySky

Part One

Kaylee,

How are you? Your daddy told me you went to work on a ship. I am so proud of you. I always knew you would be the one out of all us girls that would leave home and find a new path in life. I am a bit jealous actually. When I left the tiny backwater planet we both called home I wish I would have had something planned out.

I am writing to ask you for a favor. Kaylee, you have always been a friend…a real, true friend. I could always count on you for anything. You never judged me or spread my secrets around town. You are such a good, caring soul, which is why I don’t even want to ask, but as selfish as I think asking this favor is, I am going to do so anyways. By no means whatsoever should you feel obligated to say yes. Please, please say no if you must.

People make mistakes…big mistakes. I know what I did was wrong…legally, but as far as morally…I like to think it was right. Remember Vincent Aarons? That summer when we were fourteen… almost every minute the three of us could be found hanging out in the barn. He is the mistake. I can’t really say what happened…not in a letter.

So here comes the favor… I am on the planet, Calentuk. If you can get your captain to pick me up and take me anywhere… providing anywhere is far from here, you would be doing me an immense favor. If you decide to ask this of him, let him know the truth. By him coming here to help me he might be putting his ship and crew in danger. What I did was wrong and it has put a mark on my head… I am afraid I cannot disclose anymore details.

If you can come, I will see you. Find me in the building the locals call “Annabellas”. If you cannot come, I understand. I will not think anything ill of you.

Love,

Krestanya Arabella Aarons

Kaylee
