The world looks a better place if we are surrounded by our loved ones. It’s hard to find people who love us whole-heartedly with no terms and conditions applied. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a family and friends. The guy whose story we are about to tell struggled to have an ordinary childhood that’s every kid’s right. A good home, loving parents, quality education, and lots of fun is what every child deserves but Carter never got any of these.

And when he was getting used to this life, someone started to keep an eye on the guy.

Carter Wyles

Carter Wyles never had a common life. During the past 11 years, he was moved to different foster centers from time to time. At first, it was hard for him to get used to the new environment but now, he kind of started getting used to it. When a kid grows in the foster center, he/she understands the fact that with passing birthday, the probability of getting a forever home decreases. Wondering why?

Break-Free

Carter was soon going to enter the teen phase of his life and not to mention that this is one of the most confusing time for everyone. Even the cute little-outspoken ones can turn out to be the shy irritated introverts. And Carter was right at this turning point of life. It is easiest to distract kids at this stage and even more easy to get them off the right track. 

No Christmas-y Vibes

Christmas was around the corner but there were no signs of happiness on Carter’s face. Isn’t Christmas supposed to be the best time of the year? Many names are never placed under the Christmas trees and Carter knew his name was one of those. Yet, this little kid’s belief in the Almighty was strong enough to make him wish for a forever home. He didn’t ask for a play station or a skateboard but a home to call his own and a family to love him as he has always been a part of it. 

Bouncing

This time Carter was in a foster care of Lancaster, Ohio when he was called in the head caretaker’s room. He thought it will another moving notice for him because that’s why he was called by the head caretaker before. So, was that all? Well, that’s how it seemed at the first place but in reality, the head of the organization really didn’t want to inform him about anything.

Unwillingness

Carter was upset even with the thought of moving to another foster care. The moving process takes a lot of struggle that includes the adjustment process in the new environment and trying to get along with the new kids for whom Carter will be a stranger. As he didn’t have anything in his control, he followed the orders and walked towards the headroom.

Long Wait

The head of the organization just asked Carter to wait outside his office. Carter waited there wondering what it could possibly be. There was a pin drop silence in the corridor. Carter could only hear him talking to someone over the phone; unable to understand what it was actually about. And soon he called for the little boy.
