Lost Sight

I lost sight of who I really was but I never thought something like this would show me who I really am but there's just one problem I can't see -Manny Santos

I slowly opened my eyes at least I thought I did but as I retried it I couldn't see anything I could hear people moving around and I could smell my mother's perfume. But I couldn't see. I quickly went into a state of panic screaming trying to get up but feeling restrained by people. Only hearing the sound of my mother and father crying I felt for my eyes frantically but all I could feel was bandages. What was going on? I thought to myself nervously then I spoke out loud after slowly calming down no one spoke at first but then a voice I found completely unfamiliar spoke

"Manuela do you remember anything that happened" Someone spoke placing what felt like their warm hands on my shoulder

"No where am I and how do you know my name" I asked looking around but not being able to see anything

"Manuela I'm a Doctor at Philippines Memorial Hospital and you've been unconscious for about a week now and you were involved in a skiing accident where you crashed into a tree and as a result lost your eye sight but............." Anything after that I ignored all I could hear was me screaming and slowly just minutes ago what where unfamiliar memories to me became familiar I was on my skies then as I was coming down full speed I zoned out and started thinking back to what happened with me and Craig then before I knew it I lost control and crashed into a tree

I slowly and softly turned away from the side that I heard the doctor voice coming from.

"So I'm blind permanently" I asked already knowing the answer to the question

"Yes but like I said you're lucky to be alive what you...." The doctor started before I cut him off

"Thank you doctor but I would truly like to be left alone so could you and my parents leave and whoever else is in the room and please turn off the lights" I asked pleasantly but inside feeling as though my body had went dead along with my eyes

"Yes Miss Santos would you like your blinds to be closed also" The Doctor asked

"No that's okay" I said

I could hear high heel shoes run over to my bed. Obviously my mother running over to me she spoke crying hysterically. "Manuela are you sure you don't want me to stay" She asked

I didn't answer I just turned over once again.

My mother and father followed the doctor outside and I could hear them asking the doctor questions. I guess it was true what they said when one of the senses dies the others gets stronger.

"Is her reaction normal" I heard my mother ask

"Of course it is she actually took it better than I thought she's going to be going through a lot right now and she's going to need all the support she can get"
