Chapter 9. Esmae's eye troubles

Chapter 9. How Esmae Lost her sight in her left eye.

It was a cool calm morning, esmae's mother Victoria smiled as she glanced towards Esmae who was picking flowers for a small gift. "Victoria!" Victoria arose quickly, smiling at Esmae and whispering softly "I will be back, my sweet Rose." Esmae blankly stared at her mother, smiled and giggled continuing to pick flowers. Victor, Esmae's father glared and grimly looked at Esmae. Esmae skipped happily over to her father which he was awaited by 2 other men by an cherry blossom. "Esmae Rose...." Esmae's smile soon faded away, just as she reached up to her father handing him the flowers. Esmae's father slapped the flowers out of her hands and picked Esmae up by the neck. "Listen here Rose, I hated how imperfection you are, now let me change that." Esmae tried wiggling out of her Mad fathers grip, gasping wildly for air. Victor slammed Esmae to the ground below the cherry tree. Both of the henchmen handed victor a knife, Esmae screamed and sobbed, her violet eyes tightly shut. "Stop closing your eyes you wench!" Esmae began to sob as her eyes fluttered open, her father injecting her left eye with the knife. Esmae screamed loudly as she possibly could, sobbing loudly as the blood spilt onto her dress. Victoria came back out and screamed loudly, running up to victor and yelling at him. Esmae's vision slowly escaped her, she clenched the flowers tightly just as her mother sobbed, mourning over the fact that her daughter was loosing blood. Many hours later, her drunken father poured gasoline over the cherry blossom, Esmae gasped loudly for air as she woke up from the blood loss. She carefully ripped the knife out of her eye. She slowly got up, a little wobbly with her balance but her vision messed up. Her eye now had a star cross symbol on its left pupil, while her right eye was perfectly normal. A small trigger lit the cherry blossom on fire, Esmae screamed even louder and ran inside, trying to find her mother. "Mummy! Mummy!" Victoria ran open arms to Esmae and picked her up, swirling in circles as she sat her down. "Mummy how come I can't see?" Victoria teared up and hugged Esmae tightly. "My darling, I wish that you had your vision back, I truly do."

Many months later Esmae soon got used to being blind, she went to school one day (She's 10 at this time); Plaid skirt, combat boots, a white t-shirt, a black blazer, and a red tie. Someone slipped/stuck notes on her locker, saying that she should just go Kill herself. Esmae ran out of that school and into her room at her house. She slammed the door shut behind her and slid down the wall, burying her face into her knees. Esmae sobbed silently, she lifted up her head; a scratchy vision of herself in her uniform, hanging from the dead/burnt cherry blossom. "I wish... I wish that could be right now." Victoria knocked on the door and handed Esmae some tissues and gave her a big hug. "It's okay, you're alright..."
