Prologue

"Hello?" My twin sister, Hannah is calling me.

"Hey dude, I forgot my charger."

"Oh.."

"Can you bring it to me?"

"I'm kind of doing math homework."

"Come on! Please I'll meet you at the mall."

"Ugh. Fine." I turn my laptop off, slip my flip flops on, and head over to the mall.

My head is KILLING me, and I already know it's from my eye pressure.

Why can't the eye hospital just call us back?

I take the bus over to the mall, and notice my vision changing drastically.

I can't see ANYTHING out of my left eye anymore. And I'm officially freaking out.

I decide to ignore it, and meet Hannah and mom at the mall, already in a panicked mood.

My mom notices my mood. "Alex, what's going on with you today?"

"Yeah, you're really being rude."

This is the breaking point. This is when I tell them.

"I wanna know why I can't see." Tears stream down my cheeks. "And my head is hurting from the eye pressure, and the hospital won't FREAKING call us back!"

"I'm sorry." Hannah says, quietly.

"I'm sorry I didn't know it was that bad."

Mom pulls into Hannah's therapists office.

Within a half hour, she's called my dad and I have an appointment with a new doctor.

Dr. Calloway. He works at the hospital I had all of my heart surgeries at.

This is a good hospital. Hopefully he can give me some insight.

I finish my homework, lookong forward to this appointment.

Maybe I'll be able to see again.

PARIS IN THE DARK

Silver's Second Chance

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
