My hands shook violently as Taemin gently took off the bandage covering my eyes. Blood was pounding in my head. I bit my lip as I tried to calm my racing heart. The bandage fell from my eyes and I felt like I would faint any second. I gritted my teeth. “Baekhyun, open your eyes slowly,” Taemin whispered and took hold of my hand. I took a deep breath. I opened my eyes. And saw nothing. I blinked. Once. Twice. Thrice. No. Every muscle in my body froze. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t move. The world had stopped. No. Hot, heavy tears rolled down my face. “Baekhyun? Can you see us?” Chanyeol asked, touching my face. Instead of answering, I just shook my head. I clenched my fists. I couldn’t stop crying. “Guys, can you give us a minute please?” Suho said to the others. “Luhan, Chanyeol, both of you can stay.” I heard the door opened and closed as the others left the room. I heard Taemin sigh. “Hyung, listen to me please. You have to undergo sessions of eye drop treatment. Do you understand?” Taemin said as he held both of my hands. I nodded at him. “But what if it won’t work? I won’t be able to see again?” I shivered involuntarily. “You’ll undergo another transplant,” Suho whispered. “Baekhyun-ah.” I felt Luhan put one arm around me. I haven’t heard anything from Chanyeol. “Chanyeol?” I reached out blindly for him. “I’m here,” he said as he took hold of my hand. “On second thought, if you don’t mind, I want to talk to Baekhyun, alone,” Suho told them. “Of course,” Taemin answered. “We’ll be outside then,” Chanyeol muttered and kissed my forehead. Suho waited until they left the room before speaking to me. “Baekhyunnie.” Suho took my hands in his. “Hyung, what if I won’t see again?” I sobbed. “Listen to me. I want you to keep this in mi... ... middle of paper ... ...as given back to me. Like lost and found. The sun was halfway through the horizon. The lake below, just as I remembered, sparkled. The forest, so alive. I smiled at the scene before me. “It’s beautiful,” Chanyeol said. I looked at him. At his perfect face. God. It’s like I’m seeing him for the first time again. He was glowing before my eyes. If I was his angel then he was my angel too. I could almost picture him with wings, and a halo on his head. I was drowning in his perfection, my eyes tracing every curve and dip of his face and body. “Yeah, it’s beautiful,” I said. He turned to me. I stare at his eyes. I could see myself reflected on them. Love was on their depths. My angel smiled at me and leaned down to kiss me. It was the best birthday ever. “I love you,” I whispered against his lips. “I love you too,” Chanyeol whispered back, pulling me closer to him. finis
“Oh I’m good. I came to help. What happened to you?” Tom asked, with a worried expression on his face. His eyes met Fred’s, and he could see the humor, and strength of Fred’s heart in Fred’s warm, chocolate brown eyes. To Tom, the eyes were a window to the soul.
"Why were you such a bully in Junior high?" I say nervously. Damn that was a stupid question, I am about to get beat up. Oh no, let me close my eyes and clinch my face. After nothing really happened, or it did happen and my face is just really numb that I can't feel it anymore. The room was awkwardly silent for good two to three minutes, I slowly opened my eyes and then Dale finally started talking.
He yanked to one side, and then the other, bringing out the tears. I squeezed my mom’s hand as it continued. I struggled and moaned but it wouldn't stop. I cried like a maniac for the pain to stop.
We walked further into the oasis, my palms, damp and clammy with sweat twitched nervously inside of my pant pockets. Glancing around nervously, my heart swelled with joy when I saw the object of my desires sitting on a rock in the middle of a reflecting pool. Its elegant golden curves and pure white strings reflected in the light, causing it to glimmer.
Paramedics squeeze my arms, staining their gloves a deep red. Doctors and nurses scream at each other as they run across the hallways wheeling me into the operating theatre. I look over to my wrists as clear fluids begin their journey into my veins. My heart is in my throat, my pulse is echoing throughout the room, my limbs are quivering, and my lungs are screaming. Nurses force plastic tubes up my nose, as jets of cold air enter my sinuses, giving me relief. Inkblots dance before my eyes like a symphony of lights. A sudden sleepiness overcomes me and slowly my vision dims.
When I opened my eyes, I could see a pool of blood on the neon green course. I reached my hands down to lift myself up, but all I could see was the splattered blood on my baby blue jeans. I heard my date rush to my side to lift me up and carry me inside. My head was spinning so fast and I couldn’t think straight. Panic sunk in as soon as I saw my butchered nose in the mirror. This wasn’t something I could hide. My first reaction was to call my sister to let her know what happened, but also see if she could redeem me from my lie. To my advantage, her and her fiance were in Evansville already. Although I knew I needed to go to the hospital as soon as possible, I met up with Haley first. She rushed me to the emergency room and called my
The rope suddenly snapped. I fell and I fell until I hit something soft, something beating. I found myself lying, on my stomach, against what looked like a human heart.
As I regained my consciousness, my face was throbbing with pain and my nose was bleeding. I tried to clean the blood off my face, but realized my hands and legs were tied up. I sat upright and looked around me. My house was a mess; everything was either broken, or gone. . . . I had been robbed.
I was encircled by the scenery of the miraculously beautiful rainbow. Colors of all shades struck out to me. It was like an artist painted perfection in the sky. To my right, were sky scraping palm trees! The leaves were so fresh looking and an illuminating color of green. It was a perfect area of shade to relax and drift into my own world. The scenery was so calm that not a cloud obscured the deep serene .Additionally, the sounds of the rhythmic pounding of the waves repressed all of my worries. As I closed my eyes to listen to the pure sounds, I felt the breeze gliding across my skin. It was such an amazing feeling; it gave me chills. It was a stunning thing to experience. I was truly in
A new day has begun. Slowly ascending into the cold dark sky, the sun glows vibrantly with delight. The passionate colours fill the sky with warmth like the pink grapefruits, zesty lemons, citrus oranges and cherry red. The sea so subtle sparkles preciously as it strolls up against the shore. The crystal water that stretch out far into the horizon gets darker and deeper but stays very calm.
Suddenly I started weeping. I did not know why I wept for a while. I
I was flung back into reality when the ice-cold water drenched me completely. Groaning and screaming with anguish, I writhed about on the floor, clutching my body. My eyes were watery from the excruciating pain and my breath came out in sharp, shallow rasps.
Closer and closer to the calm water, I began sinking deeper in the sand. It was comforting, the silence, tranquility, and warmth of the faint sun. There is a slight breeze, warm, but cold and lonely. I could smell the scent of fish blowing through my hair and body. The sun was still fading, slowly but surely the day was almost over. About half of it is gone now. I could see shades of blue, red, purple, and pinkish-yellow. They were mixed with puffy clouds that lined the beginning of the sky and the end of the water. I noticed the darker shades on the bottom of the lower clouds.
My hand shaking at every thought, a cold shiver ran down my spine as cold sweat trickled down the side of my forehead. I lifted my hand up and a strong smell hit my nose, it was the smell of blood. I lifted the object and shock hit me like lightening, fear displaced my sadness, sickness changed my bloodstream from blood to a thick liquid pus and vomit. I held the muscle with my right hand as my left hand was paralysed with shock. The adrenaline shot me forcing me to move but shock shattered me into thin slices that were impossible to put back again.
...ed eyes, vision growing fainter, body becoming paralyzed, and the hum of the hospital machines muting to a dull throb. And slowly I rise, rise into the escape of pure bliss.
