This chapter is dedicated to Yusra Gasm. Haha hope you guys enjoy it. Sorry, i've been really busy lately...
”Why did we become blind, I don't know, perhaps one day we'll find out, Do you want me to tell you what I think, Yes, do, I don't think we did go blind, I think we are blind, Blind but seeing, Blind people who can see, but do not see.” I continued…
Mrs. Johnson, Blake’s mother and I had been speaking for about three hours ever since Blake left. She was really sweet, a great listener and friendly. “Your thoughts are very deep and creative… Quite interesting.” She said.
“But... As I said, I want to be able to see stuff. I want to see the beautiful nature again. It would’ve been better if I got to see you in real life. At least once…” I sighed.
“Aww…” She said sadly.
There was a knock on the door. Blake had entered and greeted his mother. That brings me back to the thoughts… Who was on the phone with him? Was everything okay? There was something fishy going on here because Blake and Mrs. Johnson had left the room and I could hear whispers outside the room but couldn’t make out what they were saying exactly…
I wonder who’s going to dress me up… or who’s going to help me take a shower… This is going to be hard. I want my phone but I don’t know where they placed it… Did they bring my clothes from my apartment?
“Hope you had a good time with my mum.” I looked up to hear Blake’s voice. “Yeah, she’s way better than you.” I blurted.
Why did I even say that?! Gosh, I’m so dumb.
“Excuse me?”
“Nothing… So where were you?”
I regret asking that question. What if he gets mad? It’s not my business. I’m so stupid.
“At a friend’s house.” I could sense it, he was lying by the way he spoke. I knew that tone, he used it when he was lying and when he was worried.
Wow…I’m starting to know this guy more than I ever thought I would.
“Hmm…Okay.”
“Why do you care?”
“Just wondering.”
“Well, it’s none of your business.”
“If it’s none of my business, why did you tell me where you were?”
“I didn’t tell you.”
“Yes, you did.”
“No, I didn’t!”
“You just said you were at a friend’s house!”
“I was lying to you!”
=============== Silence =====================
He started to panic like he didn’t want me to know he was lying.
“Can we just do something?” I say, trying to change the subject. It wasn’t any of my business. I respect him if he lies to me.
“Uhm, yeah, sure… whatever you want.”
“I can’t do anything when I’m blind…”
“I’m sorry…………………”
“Where’s my suitcase? My clothes? My phone?”
“I brought them all, they’re on the bed. When you need anything, just tell me and I’ll get it for you.”
“Umm… can you- ..nah never mind.”
“What?”
“Oh nothing.”
“Don’t start a sentence and then not finish it!” He’s getting angry.
“Well…”
“Don’t be shy; you are going to be living with me now.”
That sounded so good. NO ALEX. HE’S NOT GOOD OR HOT OR ANY OF WHAT YOU THINK. HE’S A BAD GUY REMEMBER?
Well yeah, but maybe there’s a good side of him.
Snap out of it!
“Nothing…”
“Alex, don’t get me started.”
“Fine! I need a shower!!”
“Oh.”
“Oh.”
“Um.. Well, I’ll tell my mum to hire a lady to help you.”
“Ew no! I don’t want a random stranger to see me naked!”
“Fine, then I will.” I could feel a smirk forming on his face.
“Pervert!”
“You asked for it.” Another smirk
“I prefer the random lady.”
“Fine, I’m going to go talk to mum.”
This is getting worse.
Blake’s POV
2 HOURS AGO.
My phone rang and my heart was about to stop when I saw who it was.
Georgia’s doctor.
Was she in trouble? Was she okay? I answered. The doctor looked concerned; he said that there were new results that were completely different from the previous ones. In case you’re wondering, Georgia’s my twin… Last year, she was hit in a car accident and ended up in coma. I was a bad guy last year. I was a thug, I was a player. But what hurts the most is that, I didn’t even bother to check on her in the hospital. Now you might be wondering why? It’s because I was busy with my EX GIRLFRIEND, Skylenne. I regret every moment I had with her.
I only used her, I never really loved her. In fact, I never really had feelings for a girl; they were all treated like my toys and after what happened to Georgia… I never did it again. I changed… I broke up with my Skylenne. I deleted all girls from my phone and I don’t even look at them anymore at school.
But in the end, they still chase me.
I’m in my car now, on my way to the hospital and all I can think about is her. The house feels so lonely without her… and honestly, putting Alex in her room, just makes me miss her more… And remember her by looking at Alex. When Alex and I argue, I think it’s Georgia…
They’re sort of alike.
I take a left turn and the hospital is right in front of me. I decide to park at the nearest parking. I get out of the car, click the button so that it makes a sound that it’s locked and I jog to the door. The elevator is empty, thank God. Last time, I came here… I spent half an hour in the elevator. I click on the second floor and wait impatiently.
As soon as the door opens, the doctor is in front of me.
He looks fine to me. “How is she?” “Is she awake yet?”
“I have good news and bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?”
“Good news.”
“She has 90% of waking up.”
“Oh thank God!” I get down on my knees and thank god.
“But…”
Here comes the bad part.
“She might not remember certain people.”
“Will she remember me?”
“I don’t know… We’ll have to see when she wakes up…”
I’m worried but at least she’ll wake up…
“Thank you so much doc.”
“You’re welcome, sorry for taking some of your time. You seemed like you were busy when I called…”
“Well yeah, I’m having a rough time nowadays…”
“Good luck then.”
I walk down the stairs because the elevator is full and get into my beautiful Ferrari and ride away.
Surprisingly, I enter my home to hear Mum and Alex’s voices reach the living room. They weren’t fighting… Were they?
They were laughing about something but as I entered the room… They stopped. Man, they were having fun without me! I felt bad because it seems like they were having a good time but then I interrupted them, it was my first time to see Alex smile a bright real smile. No tears anymore. Wow, she was really pretty… Why haven’t I noticed her before?
“Hope you had a good time with my mum.” I say. “Yeah, she’s way better than you.” I love the way she hates me.
“Excuse me?” I say without thinking.
“Nothing… So where were you?”
Why does she care so much, doesn’t she hate me?
“At a friend’s house.” I lied.
“Hmm…Okay.”
“Why do you care?” I smile.
“Just wondering.” She says curiously.
“Well, it’s none of your business.” I blurt out.
Wish I never said that.
“If it’s none of my business, why did you tell me where you were?”
“I didn’t tell you.”
“Yes, you did.”
“No, I didn’t!”
“You just said you were at a friend’s house!”
“I was lying to you!”
Shit, looks like I’m stupid after all, I just lied because I don’t want Alex to be put in this situation. She deserves the best. I sound so gay now.
=============== AWKWARD=====================
“Can we just do something?” she say, trying to change the subject. It wasn’t any of my business..
“Uhm, yeah, sure… whatever you want.” I try to act careless so she doesn’t think I’m falling for her or anything. I’m not. What if I am.
No I can’t, I’ve just known her for a day.
“I can’t do anything when I’m blind…”
“I’m sorry…………………” I feel more than guilty now.
“Where’s my suitcase? My clothes? My phone?”
“I brought them all, they’re on the bed. When you need anything, just tell me and I’ll get it for you.”
“Umm… can you- ..nah never mind.”
“What?”
“Oh nothing.”
“Don’t start a sentence and then not finish it!” He’s getting angry.
“Well…”
“Don’t be shy; you are going to be living with me now.”
I try to convince her to tell me, I want to know so badly!
“Nothing…”
“Alex, don’t get me started.”
“Fine! I need a shower!!”
“Oh.”
“Oh.”
“Um.. Well, I’ll tell my mum to hire a lady to help you.”
“Ew no! I don’t want a random stranger to see me naked!”
“Fine, then I will.” I flirt.
“Pervert!”
“You asked for it.” I decide to flirt again because I know it teases her.
“I prefer the random lady.”
***************************************************************************
“MUMMMMMMM” I scream around the house. My voice echoes everywhere.
“Over here kiddo.”
“I need you to hire a proper lady to give Alex a shower.” “Why don’t I just do it?”
“Mummmmm.” I sigh.
“She’ll find it awkward you know.”
“Fine fine, if that’s what you kids say then okay. Just tell Alex to get ready for supper.”
“What’s for supper?”
“Macaroni and cheese.”
“I’m going to be gone by supper so I will need you to feed her because Martha has to go visit her sick son...”
Martha’s our maid.
“Okay... Fine... But she hates me!”
“No she doesn’t!”
“How do you know?”
“You still haven’t known the girl well; don’t judge her too fast young man.” My mum said with a frown.
“Whatever.”
“Here are the forks, spoons, plates, and the food is in the oven. At 7:30, take it out.”
“So after half an hour.”
“Yes” She says and gives me a kiss on the cheek.
“Bye bye!”
“Bye...”
I go back to Alex’s room and find her trying to get up.
“What are you doing? You’re going to hurt yourself. I lean against the door to watch this entertaining show.”
“Then come here and help me.”
“Make me.”
“Asshole.”
“What did you call me?” I try to keep the humor hidden in my tone.
She bumps her head into a wall.
This is hilarious. I help her up and walk her to the dining room where the food will be set.
“What are you doing and where are we Blake?”
“We are in the dining room and I’m about to feed you.” I said happily.
“I can feed myself; just give me the fork and spoon, what’s for supper?”
“Sorry ma’am but I’m going to feed you tonight then you can guess what type of food it is.”
She frowns at me but there’s a hidden blush.
I love making this girl blush.
“Come on! It’ll be enjoyable.”
“For you and not for me.”
“Aww, giirrrrl like it’ll be so romantic” I say with a high pitched voice finally making her laugh.
“You’re so stupid” she says between her laughs.
“Hey! I get A’s on my subjects!” I put my hand on my heart as if I’m offended.
“Hay is for horses.”
“Wow, you’re good at come backs haha.”
“I know, I’m awesome.”
“I’m the hot one over here.” I see a pinkish tint cover her cheeks. Does she like me? Of course she does, who doesn’t. Blake, not this girl, this girl is way different from the ones you met.
“Are you going to feed me or are you going to keep talking?”
“Open your mouth hippo.” I tease.
And before she opens her mouth to reply to that, I stuff a mouthful of macaroni and cheese into her mouth and I swear to you. I never laughed as hard as I did watching her sit there like a three year old, crossed arms over her chest with a big mouth full of food
