Sensitive But Strong (TomTord)

Chapter 3- A Lot of Explaining

"Tord."

I could just sensor the anger in his voice.

"What the hell happened to you?"

Uh oh, he asked the question.

Now my lie senses were tingling.

I knew I wasn't as good of a lier as Matt, but I learn from the best.

"Something happened, a-at my work. Y-you know, dangerous stuff..."

"Mmmhhhh." He hummed slowly and sarcastically.

I 'looked' down, and I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Tell him the truth." Matt said.

"I am." I crossed my arms.

"Edd, we have to tell you something." Patryk spoke.

Then I heard footsteps walk away.

Edd's POV

Patryk looked at me with a worried glare.

"Um, Edd, you may not believe me, but-"

"Oh, I already know Tords in the Red Army."

"No not tha— wait, how do you already know about that?!?!"

"Long story, anyway, explain." I stated.

Uh oh, looks like he's not gonna sugar coat this for me.

"Tord is blind."

Uh oh, I was right—

"Wait what?!"

He nodded.

"As in, he can't see?!"

He nodded once more.

I looked down, "because of Tom, right?"

I was hoping he wouldnt nod, but sadly, he did.
