I do not own SON
I woke up staring at the ceiling. Facing the pitch-black room again. I'm so tired of this, exhausted. I stand up from my bed, reaching the wall. I let my hand slide on it to guide me out of my bedroom. I reach the living room without any stumbling. I open the lights, an old habit that I didn't lose I guess, just to meet the darkness again.
Exhausting.
I walked trough the living room to reach the kitchen. I start to make coffee guiding me with the counter and any landmarks that I have made myself during the last eight mouths. I stop and turn my head to face the window. I can feel the heat of the sun on my skin.
I sigh.
You know how you wake up every day, go outside and just passed by everything without really noticing your surrounding just because we take it for granted? Well, you realize how much you like your town, the colors around you or the light of the sun when you can't see it anymore.
What I miss the most? Looking at someone in the eyes. See them, through them. Yeah, I'm that deep.
The last person I was able to look in the eyes was my best friend Madison, just before everything went black, and ironically I would like to erase this image of my head.
Flashback
I'm with Mads in my little car, a red Volkswagen gti 1980, my little baby. The music is blasting from the speakers as we are going through the most bad ass rap song. It's so good to see her. It's been a while because of the university and work and everything. There is so much going on, but we decide that we had to take the time and see each others. And that's exactly what I needed. We've been best friend since forever. So, it's the perfect night and we are heading to a little bar to meet others friends of us, where we gonna be able to catch up.
" SPENCER!"
I barely hear Madison scream my name. I look at her as I hear the sound of metal clash together and glass breaking from everywhere. Everything seems to go in slow motion but so fast at the same time. My eyes never leaves Madison's one and all I can see is fear in those perfect green eyes.
Everything go black.
I hear the beeping of some machine before I can't feel anything else. The sound seems faraway. But it's more and more near. As the sound becomes clearer, I start feeling my body and I never thought that we could feel so much pain without passing out. It's awful.
And then all the images comes to my mind and I panic. I remember the look in Madison eyes and with this only image I want to cry.
I try to open my eyes, but it hurt so much and all I see is pure black. I panic even more and jerk my hand over my eyes. I feel and bandage and try to rip it off with all the strength that's left in me. I feel hands trying to stop me.
" Put that off! please!"
" Darling, please calm down, it's gonna be fine." I don't know to who belongs this voice but it soothe me, just knowing that there someone with me.
"Where I am?" I ask, even if I know the answer, I just need to be sure.
" You're at the hospital, but you're going to be fine I promise."
" Where is Madison?"
" I don't know, but I will try to get answer Madison who?
I don't have time to answer, I hear someone entering the room.
" Spencer, honey". It's my mom. I feel her sitting on my bed and brushing some hair off my face. I relax a little more. I reach my hand to the bandage over my eyes.
" Mom...what's this" unsure of if I really want to know the answer. She take my hand and squeeze it.
" Let's just wait for the doctor ok?"
How could this perfect night becomes so awfully wrong?
An hour later, Dr. Harvey came to see me. He wasn't bringing good news with him. He explained to me that during the car accident I received glass in my eyes. He was able to save both of my eyes physically so I would not need any artificial eyes , but the glass had damaged my retina and my optic nerves too much so I couldn't see anymore.
Spencer Carlin, 24 years old I was now blind.
The phone ring putting me out of my memories and the warmth of the sun -Yes people I heard the phone I'm blind not deaf! - I carefully reach the coffee table in the living room where I know exactly where the phone is.
"Hello"
"Hi, Spencer?"
I immediately recognize the voice and my body tense a bit.
" Hey Michelle"
" How you doing?"
"Good I guess"
"Well I got some good news for you darling"
I gulp not really knowing why, I was just suddenly really stress about what she was about to tell me.
" Spencer, darling, you're still there?
" Yeah. Michelle…"
" We found a doctor who is ready to try the surgery Spencer."
My eyes immediately watered and I let out a sob.
" Honey it's going to be fine, please don't cry"
" I…It's just, I have waited for this since what seems like forever."
"I know, well come to the hospital tomorrow ok? Around 9 a.m. I will be waiting for you."
"Sound good" Sound fukcing amazingly good actually. "Thank you"
" See you tomorrow darling"
I can believe this is happening, I will finally have the surgery. I know I shouldn't get too exited so soon, but it's just been so long, too long since I last saw the light.
Let me know what you think! I have other chapter ready if you want to read it!:)
