It was quiet. Everyone asleep and tucked in bed. Everything was normal but i had an uneasy feeling in my stomach.
I closed my eyes trying to sleep, wanting to ignore it. I twisted and turned but i couldn't sleep.
I got up from my bed and went in the kitchen, to the fridge. I poured a glass of Milk and warmed it up in the microwave for fifteen seconds. Like they say warm milk helps you sleep.
I chugged it down as i sat in the bar seat. I rested my head on the bar like counter thinking.
My stomach still fuzzy at the pit. I've always could tell if things weren't right but this was different, more serious.
I started to feel drowsy, i tiredly stumbled to my room. On my way i checked on my little sister Margret. She was safe and sleeping peacefully.
"Maybe I'm imagining things." I say in a hushed whisper.
I left back to the room silently closing the door. I entered my Rainbow-colored room and smile at my artistic ways.
I love to paint bright artistic painting. The way colors collide take me away.
I lay on my bed finally drifting a dreamless slumber.

"Maddi! Maddi!"
I hear my little sister jump up and down on my bed.
"What Margy," I smiled rubbing my tired eyes.
"Take me outside please!" She loudly asked grinning.
"Yeah, let me get ready."
********
I smiled as i watch Margy play catch with her friends. Maybe my feeling was wrong.
Honk honk
I turned my head my eyes widening.
"Margret!!" I screeched. I pushed her out the way just in time, tripping in the process. My life flashed before my eyes, colors gleamed, sadness, happiness.
**********
I opened my eyes. Everything was different. No color to be seen. I looked around on confused. All i saw were shades of black white and gray.
"Ms. Pillar i see your awake." I looked to see a dark gray lady with black and light gray coat. She wore grim expression on her face. "I'll get your family and we'll discuss this."
She left and came back in with my parents and my sister.
"I'm sorry to say but you...." her face looked grim. Her expression showed pity. "You have achromatopia,"
That's it, I lost color.

Hey everyone, it's Davi here! So i wanted to explain what achromatopia is.
Achromatopia is a type of color blindness in which the person can only see black white and gray shades. It is rare and can be caused by damage to the parts of the brain that deal with colors. People can also be born with it.
Well i hope you like my story! Sad, I know sorry if i caused any tears. Bye
