Deaf ~TinTard~

Chapter 8

Tord POV

It's been a couple weeks now...I still haven't forgotten. I've only been thinking about it more.

"It's okay Tord, maybe a walk will help..." I mumbled, trying to calm myself down. I'm probably driving myself crazy. It was late out, so that lowers my chance of running into anyone I know.

I stood up from my bed and grabbed my phone before heading out the door. Within the past two weeks, my hair has became a mess, I was paler, I became thinner, over all, I was doing worse.

I walked along the sidewalk and saw a small road leading down to a very small beach. I decided to go down there. I sat on the sand, the water reaching my feet. It was calming.

(I'm using Pau And Pat instead of Paul and Patryk for now on). Pau and Pat had helped me create a device which helps me understand what a person is saying, no matter the language. Sure, I couldn't hear, but I can still see. I used my bad eye for that. I can see what a person is saying. It's helpful.

Tom POV

"-THEN JUST LEAVE ME ALONE IF YOU TWO CARE ABOUT THE COMMIE SO MUCH! GO MARRY HIM FOR ALL I CARE!" I shouted, running off. Edd, Matt and I had gotten in an argument because they wanted to see Tord again, and of course, that pissed me right off. I ran for what felt like forever, which it wasn't of course.

I finally stopped in an alleyway. The ground was littered in empty beer bottles, broken glass and blood. Reminds me of my room.

I started crying, since I didn't have to fear someone whom I knew seeing me cry. I was known to be stronger than a wimpy crybaby. I walked out of the alleyway and just walked around aimlessly. I was the only one nearby, so no one could see me cry. I saw a small beach (oh wow, such a coincidence) and headed down (it isn't the same path as Tord though).

Tord POV (not for long tho)

I saw someone out of the corner of my eye come into the beach. I turned my head to look and...

"GREAT WAY TO MAKE ME FORGET WORLD, REAL GREAT!" I shouted loudly. I stood up and chucked a rock into the water, out of anger of course.

Tom POV

"GREAT WAY TO MAKE ME FORGET WORLD, REAL GREAT!" I heard someone shout nearby. I looked in the direction of the voice, and the only possible person that could have said that...is Tord. I watched as he started walking in the opposite direction. Of course, I was curious so I ran after him. He probably didn't know I was coming, due to being deaf and all.

I tapped his shoulder, since I wasn't sure what else to do. He turned around to face me. I saw a glimpse of fear in his eyes before he ran off.

"WAIT!" I shouted, running after him. He ran faster right after, which was strange. I mean, he can't hear me, unless he lied about that too. He soon came to a dead end, which was perfect for me, but bad for Tord. Good thing I don't care.

"I'd ask so many questions right now, but you can't hear me..." I mumbled.

"Maybe not, but I made a little gadget that can help." Tord said, panting slightly. I was a bit surprised to be honest.

"Did...did you just hear what I said?" I asked, making sure I haven't gone crazy.

"Correction, Thomas, I saw what you said. I made an invention that shows me what people say." Tord sighed.

"How is that even possible?" I asked.

"Well, after 'the incident', my one eye became pretty messed up. Not completely, but you get the picture. I replaced it with a fake eye that shows me what people say." Tord explained.

"Still confused, but okay." I stated. There was a moment of silence.

"Are those tear stains?" Tord asked, pointing to my face.

"Huh?" I questioned, forgetting earlier.

"On your face, are those or are those not tear stains?" Tord repeated.

"Why the hell are you even asking, commie? It's not like you've ever cared for me, Matt or Edd. I bet you don't care that I got in a car crash!" I said aggressively. Tord stayed quiet for a moment.

"Where did you go?" Tord asked.

"Huh? What do you mean 'Where did I go'?" I asked.

"After the Car Crash." Tord added on.

"To get help, and how the hell did you know that I left?" I asked.

"Because...I was the one that bandaged up Edd and Matt."
