Disclaimer: I don't own TSL. I own this plot though. Yup I do.
The next day Zack was waken upby his mom. "Come on. You have to go to school. Your grades aren't good enough for you to skip another day. Of course you could always do summer school again."
"I'll go to school. Is Cody going?" Zack asked.
""No. I'm going to wait and see how everything turns out when the bandages come off."
"Alright. So I guess I need to bring home his homework?"
"Right you are."
Zack looked over at his little brother. He looked so peaceful sleeping curled up in a ball. His blankets had all fallen to the floor in the night. Zack went over and put them back on Cody. Cody immediatly uncurled from his ball and pulled the blanket up. Zack smiled to himself. Then he got ready and left for school. The next few days went by really fast.
"Zack. Wake up. Do you want to go to school or do you want to go with Cody and me to the hospital? Cody gets to have his bandages taken off today," said Carey.
"I'll go with you and Cody, but I thought you didn't want me missing school?"
"Well this is different. I think Cody would like it if you came. You know, moral support."
"Okay. When are we leaving?"
"Um ...I was thinking we would leave at 9:00."
"So when should I wake Cody up?"
"You don't have to," said Cody waking from his sleep. He sat up and stretched.
"Sorry honey. Did we wake you up?" asked Carey.
"No. I always wake up at...uh...nevermind. I forgot blind people couldn't tell time with a regular clock. It totally messes everything up," said Cody. Everyone laughed.
It seemed like it took forever to get to 9:00. Cody was nervous. He was in the car at 8:30. He just wanted to see if he would really be blind forever. When it was actually 9:00, Zack and Carey got into the car and drove to the hospital. Carey signed in and the three sat in the waiting room until their name got called.
"Martin? Carey Martin?" asked the secretary.
Cody stood up right away, and reached for Zack's hand. Zack always forgot that Cody needed help walking around so he just started walking. Carey ended up taking Cody's hand. When they got into the room Dr. Fisher was waiting.
"So how are you doing, Cody?" he asked.
"Uh...good I guess."
"Well then. Let's take off those bandages. I'm going to have you sit right here on this table." Dr. Fisher led Cody to a table in the middle of the room. When Cody was sitting down he cut the first layer of bandages. Then he unraveled the rest. Dr. Fisher stopped when he got to the last layer. "Okay Cody, I'm going to need you to be careful. If you aren't blind, then the light in this room is going to hurt your eyes. I need you to shut your eyes." Cody shut his eyes. Dr. Fisher removed the last bandage. Cody's eyes were all squinched up. He slowly began to unsquinch and open his eyes. When his eyes were completely open he looked up.
"Can you see anything, Cody?" asked Zack excitely.
So what do you think? Is Cody cured or is he still blind? Review and see if you can guess.
