I'm Her Muse, She's My Executioner

The year I lose my eyesight, I happen to stumble upon Wendy Peck, who's just moments away from freezing to death.

I beg my mom to save her, telling her I want a companion to guide me.

Leaning toward Wendy, I whisper a promise in her ear. "I don't need you to be my guide. Just focus on staying alive. And you can go wherever you want."

But after my mom remarries, Wendy stays and becomes the only person I have left to rely on.

She watches over me as I grow up, acting as my white cane year after year.
