At First Sight

Chapter 2

Lura's POV

*The Next Day* I wake up yawning I hear Mr. Hashimah come in and I sit. "Hi Lura todays the day you get the help you have been needing" I smile. Yes, today is an enjoyable day but I wonder how Takahashi is going to help me. I caught my sight when the accident happened and he saved me. We will let us find out I get out of bed and go to the bathroom where the nurse put cloths on the rack. I wish I could see the color and know how pretty it is. I miss you mother I wish you were still here. A tear slipped down my cheek and I wiped my face and got dressed.

I open the bathroom door and walk outside into the hallway a nurse grabs my hand and leads me to outside. I feel the cool breeze and smile the cold always feels good to me. The nurse let go of my hand and felt someone else grab my hand "Hello Lura what a nice day it is want to go sit down." I nod he leads me to a bench, and we sit down "now Lura can you tell me places you went to in your childhood maybe this can help regain your sight." When I hear the word childhood, I shake my head. "Please do not speak of that again it makes me feel depressed I don't want to remember the past" he squeezes my hand and lifts my head.

"The only way to heal you is to travel to your past to fix what was broken" tears slip down my face. The past is the memory I hate the most and still hold onto dearly because of my mother. "I'm scared of the past t-that n-night was t-er-rible please not about the past" "I know you are scared but the only way to heal is to heal the broken inside you." I sigh, he is right maybe this will save me it will heal me and bring back my sight. "O-ok-okay" he lets go of my hand and kisses my forehead I feel myself blushing and turn my head away.

He is nice this is really confusing most of the doctors that help me are just reassuring. I wish I could see what he looked like, it would make me happy to see the one who saved me. "Okay Lura lets go someplace that you know" I gulp here goes nothing "You can try the place I lived in but it's kind of far" He squeezes my hand so I know that it is fine. We stand up and I hear a car "Tell me where you lived Lura." "Nashae street is where I lived" he laughs yes, I know it is not far I just wished he would not go there. "That's not far at all Lura you just did not want to go" I sigh of course I do not want to go that is where my mother died.

I hear the car door open and he sits me down inside I hear him open his door and gets inside I hear it shut and hear a click. He buckled himself I grab my seat belt and feel for the click and it clicks. I hear the keys jangle and twist and the car engine starts I feel the car move. I have not been in a car for so long. I am mostly at the hospital, but Doctor Hashimah takes me out sometimes to a café, but we walk. "Alright Lura were leaving now" I sigh why did it have to be the childhood I do not believe by going there it will help my eyesight I mean that place broke me because of my beloved mother.

My mother was Japanese and American she moved to America and we stayed there for a year and then we moved back to Japan. I learned a lot of English there and it was not that hard and I know Japanese but my main language is English because I lived there. I think about my mother and the days we went to get ice cream when I was little she would always choose Vanilla while I chose Strawberry and she would put Ice cream on my nose. I would always giggle when I felt the cold touch of the Ice cream with my mother's warm touch. I smiled at her and hugged her every time I was near her that night with the fire I heard my mother scream "My Baby!" and I knew she was coming to save me.

I never knew who my dad was because he left me and mother when I was born and it left my mom heartbroken but she healed in time and told herself she would never be with another man. She was right she never once had a man over she was happy with just me and just me only I love my mother so much and wish that fire never happened she could be here to see me have my eyesight back. If only there was a Grim Reaper that could bring her back maybe there is and if there is then I would do anything to bring her back even if that means giving my soul up to save hers. I zone out of my thoughts when I hear the car stop and I smell the air, the air that was the memory of the burning house, I can still hear the screaming and crying that day. I feel my heart stop and cannot breathe. I hear the running of Mr. Takahashi and him telling me to breathe but how can I when were in the worse place of my life.
