Johnny's POV: December 24th, Tuesday
My dad wanted to though a huge Christmas Party at our house and he sad to invite all my friends and they're family so now there's like a million people in our house.
All the Curtis's, Trampani's, Cades, Randles, Matthew's, and Winston's you know.
Him and Mom got back together last month. She doesn't go to her house much anymore.A lot of the younger people are in the kitchen eating desserts.
Dally tells us more about the babies.
"So we went to doctor for them the other day mainly for Keith, since he's so small. But they asked some things about if the girls are looking and grabbing or whatever. And we collectively came to the realization that, Chelsea responds to everything, but she doesn't really make good eye contact with. Well, anything. So when we go back next year for their one month check up they might diagnose her as blind if she still can't do that.""Don't stress it, they're glasses that can fix just about anything. Very rarely are people completely blind." Tommy tells us.
"Tommy, have you told anyone about how you're blind?!" Eve laughs.
"No." He starts turning beet red.
"You're blind? Like you can't see at all?" Two-bit questions.
"Why don't you take your glasses off, Thomas? It's cute." His dad encouraged.
"No, it's not. I look weird." He shakes his head."Quit packing a sad, you fat baby." His mom whines.
Darry giggles and has to fight back the rest of the laugh.
Ally comes by and swipes his glasses straight off, but he covers his eyes.
"What do your eyes turn purple without your glasses?" Maggie's very interested. Same, honestly.
He uncovers one eye. "Oh I wish."
Darry's fighting his demons not to laugh, "Ya'know? It's really not that bad." He smiles at Tommy.
"Why don't you want to show us?" I ask.
"Because it's really, really ugly and I look stupid." He answers.
"Also I'm not laughing at you. I'm laughing because I know exactly how everyone is gonna react." Darry laughs.
"Should I really show them?" Tommy asks Darry.
We all encourage and cheer.
He takes his other hand off his eye and no one laughs. Because we're all stuck in shock.
Darry laughs at the rest of us and Tommy's family is giggling too."Does that hurt?" Soda cringes.
Both his eyes were turned in nearly all the way.
"No. I just can't see it. All I see is white blurs, so without my contacts or my glasses I'm legally blind." He explains.
"If I try to look left, my right eye falls in completely and my left eye looks up and vise versa. I can see out of my eyes separately, if I close one. But together
they don't work. They never have."He mom gets a picture and shows all of us her phone, "This was Thomas's first Christmas. His eyes were even cuter."
"Aw!" We coo as the phone gets passed around.
"How old was he?" My mom asks.
"Ten months." Mrs. Trampani smiles.
We coo some more. He was sitting in a little Santa hat, a red shirt, a diaper, and little elf boots with playing with his feet and smiling at the camera. Well his head was facing the camera.
"I hate all my baby pictures because I look so stupid it literally all of them. I look slow." Tommy tells us.
"Don't say that about my baby. You were so cute. And you didn't even know what you looked like so you were so eager to do anything." His dad told him.
