chapter thirty three
At first, I could see the ray of light. A tiny reflection of what was right in front of me. But then, it felt more like a cartoon. What is this? My mind froze for a bit. But then, I could hear the cheering of the men who couldn't stop praising me. "How does he even do that?" "He is blind." "How? That is literally impossible." The girl was rescued and was immediately taken away in an ambulance. As the men let showering me with praises, some of them even took a picture of me. I was not sure if I was supposed to show them my face but it as too late. They were all certain of one thing. I was blind. My mother was lost. She could not believe what just happend. She has left me at home to fend for our daily meal and now I was a hero. Gift were brought before my feet and I was names a hero. Isn't funny?One minute I was home trying to get a hold of my sight and the next, I was some wonder kid. A blind boy who saved the life of a kid. As we journeyed back home, my mother said n

Time travelled fast as I staggered onto the street, gripping my walking stick so tightly my knuckles turned white.Every step sent sharp bolts of pain through my battered body.My vision remained a blur of shadows and faint outlines, forcing me to rely more on sound than sight. Honking cars, hurried footsteps, distant conversations—they all blended into one chaotic symphony.I ignored it.Nothing mattered except getting to St. Michael Hospital.Nothing.A taxi screeched to a halt a few feet away."Sir!" the driver called. "Are you alright?"I turned toward his voice. "I need to get to St. Michael Hospital."The driver hesitated after seeing the state I was in."You don't look well. Are you blind?" "I said..." I growled through clenched teeth, "take me there."Something in my voice made him stop asking questions."Get in."He threw open the door while I fumbled toward the door before climbing inside.The moment the taxi sped off, I leaned against the seat and shut my eyes.My breathi

Days slowly went by for me in pains. I could barely see. I had to rely on my senses and smell. And by the way, it was agonizing. I could feel Martha's pain. She has to bath me and also has to feed me. "I can do it myself!" I yelled at her one morning. "Stop treating me like I am some handicap!" Martha's inhaled sharply. I knew she was frustrated just the way I was. Jeremiah caused this!He is going to pay even if it was theast thing that I do before death claims me. "I will be going out for a while Pontius. I believe you can take care of yourself." That was Martha's last word before she walked out leaving me alone in my silence. The aroma of the food entered my nostril but it did nothing to calm the hunger inside me. Hunger for revenge. That was the only thing I had in me. I wanted Jeremiah to pay. Wanted the evil lawyer to also pay for looking down on me and most importantly, I wanted to see Jeremiah's fathers hospital crumble. I was going to devote my life to It. Ding!
Chapter thirty
A man dressed in a navy suit walked into the room. He was holding a file in his hands making the two inspectors look at him. "And who are you?" one of the inspectors asked. "Call me Lawyer Maurice. I am here to defend my client." Maurice said outloud. Officer Briggs looked at the man and back to towards inspector David Collins. "I will be filing a lawsuit against Pontius gray." he said again. My heart dropped. I felt Martha's cold hand gripped mine. "Who did you say you are again?" I said with my hands clenching the bedsheets tightly. "You assualted my client." Maurice began. He opened the file he was holding and brought out some papers. "Here, since you can't see, why don't I read it out loud for you." "Do you even know what you are talking about?" Martha's voice rang through the room. "Look at my son! Look at him!" she yelled. Her hand slowly left mine and I head the scrap of her chair make a screeching sound to my ears. "Jeremiah had my son blindfolded and hi

Martha tried to wipe her tears before they reached me, but she was too late. I had known that touch my entire life. She always cried silently. She has always pretended like she was strong while she had bottled it all up. "I'm sorry," she whispered. "I'm so sorry." I forced out a smile. "You shouldn't be apologizing mum. You did nothing wrong." "You were supposed to graduate soon," she murmured. "You were supposed to make fun of me for still treating you like a child." She laughed through her tears. "And now..." She couldn't finish. I squeezed her trembling fingers. "I'm still here, Mom." "Are you?" The question slipped out before she could stop herself. The room went into uncomfortable silence. For the first time since I woke up, I realized she wasn't just mourning my eyes. She was terrified of losing me. The door opened again. Three different footsteps entered. One was the doctor. The other two sounded heavier. "Mrs. Martha Pontius?" "Yes." "I'm

Darkness.That is what being blind feels like. You can't see what is right in front of you and it is as hard as hell. "Ah!" I woke up with a loud noise. But then, I was not on the field. I was in a more serene environment judging from the smell. The bed was neatly laid and every where reek of antiseptic. "Where am I?" I said gently. The door opened and the loud noise of a metallic tray falling to the floor sent pain into my head. "Who is there?" I said, snapping my head towards the sound. "I am going to get the doctor, Mr Pontius." she said almost immediately. I froze. My head snapping back and forth. "You know my name? Where the fuck am I? Who brought me here? How did I get here?" Click!The door shut back and I was all alone by myself and again. After a while of wondering where I was, the door opened. "Who is that?" I asked"You are speaking with Doctor Marvelous." The voice replied. I could hear the sound of his footsteps walking closer to my bed side. "Why do I have
