Chapter 2 - Can't See

♥ Xandy's POV

Nagising ako dahil sa malakas na tunog ng kulog. So I guess its still raining. Gising na ako pero di ko pa minumulat ang mga mata ko. I'm just soooo weak at this moment. I rembered we've gone into an accident.

But why? Why do I feel like Im lying on a soft surface? Am I in a hospital bed? But I thought the cliff we'd fallen is a dead end?  Did someone find us? Heard our car crashed? What? How? Who? I don't know.

Ughhh. My whole body is in pain! Damn! I can't seem to move every parts of my body. Wait, I'll try to open my eyes...seriously? I can't believe I can't even open my eyes!

For now, that will not matter for me, I'll rest first. I tried to go back to sleep. It seemed that its already midnight though.

The idea of my family being with me in that accident alarmed me so much. Oh God, please tell me everyone's okay. I ignored the pain I'm having right now. What matters is that I should go and check my parents and my boyfriend's condition. But wait, what if they are...gone? What if I am the only one who survived? NO! That's a big NO! They can't just leave me here alone! Well, there's only one way to find out.

Sinubukan kong umupo muna. Unti-unting inaangat ang ulo pero bumagsak parin ako. Bumangon ulit ako, second attempt I succeeded. Di ko parin binubuksan ang mga mata ko, I'm too afraid without knowing the reason why. Maybe dahil I'm thinking of the possible things that may happened to them. But there's nothing to be afraid of, right? They're safe, Xandy, safe.

After I calmed myself, I decided to open my eyes. Hey, I already opened my eyes, right? Pero bakit ganto? Why can't I see nothing but just pure black!? I'm starting to panic. No, this can't be happening. Maybe I was just hallucinating or this is just beacause my eyes were closed in a long time that's why it turns out that it is still adjusting in the surrounding's brightness. Yeah, yun nga ang dahilan.

I waited for 2 minutes but its still the same. I blinked my eyes many times but why!!?? What's happening? Am I blind?

"Nooooooooooo!!" I yelled. I just stopped when I heard someone calling my name and then opened the door. "Mom, dad? Baby? Is that you?" I hopefully asked. Desperation is evident on my voice.

"I'm sorry, Andy. But--" My hopes are shaking. And what is she trying to say? Why is she apologizing? Its not as if its her fault.

"Sorry para saan, tita? Di mo naman kasalanan ang nangyari ah." I paused for awhile. "And tita, why can't I see? Am I blind? Kamusta na sina mom, dad at si Vines? Are they okay?" Non-stop kong tanong sa aking tita. I waited for her to answer. Bat ang tagal? Umalis na ba sya? But I haven't heard the door closed. "Tita? Ano na po?"

"I'm really sorry An--"

"Why do you keep on saying sorry!? Bat di mo nalang sagutin yung mga tanong ko!? Diretsuhin mo na kasi ako tita!" Medyo sinigawan ko na sya, binibitin ako eh. Nakakainis! Hindi dahil di nya masabi agad agad kung anong nangyari kina Vines kundi naiinis ako dahil I'm starting to think na hindi sila okay at wala na sila!

I suddenly felt her hands wrap around me. Somehow, I felt relieved. She then talked, still hugging me. "Before everything else, I want you to know that we are always here for you no matter what, okay? You can always count on us." Nagbuntong-hininga siya. "The reason why you can't see is beacause you're already blind..." Blind. Its so hard to accept but this is reality, I have to face it "...the car landed on a big tree and nabasag yung mga salamin that's why pumasok yung mga branches then natusok ng sharp branch ang right eye mo. May naputol na veins that disabled the bloods to flow through it to help function your eyes. Sadly, both eyes is affected kaya wala kang makita. About your mom, dad and Vines...they're gone...I'm sorry, Xan--"
