I wake up suddenly aware, what's happening?

I slowly open my eyes, and wince.

I hear a gasp.

"Hello there, Cameron." Someone says.

I try to talk, but nothing comes.

"Yes, I have to get you a voice box." The person says.

I see an old man.

"I'm your father. Oh, wait until Edward sees you!" Father says.

Looking curiously at him, I slowly start sitting up.

I look at my body.

Hands, legs, feet, arms, everything is normal.

I try to stand.

"Oh! Careful! Trying to stand is hard, even for Edward." Father says.

Readjusting myself I stand before wobbling around.

"Perfect!" Father says clapping his hands.

"I'll be right back! I have to go get Edward!" Father says leaving.

I look around and stand still.

There's an oven and several machines working.

I grab a heart shaped cookie and try it.

I almost puke out of surprise, I start to shake trying to keep it back.

Calming myself, I continue eating.

I turn back to the door in time for it to be opened.

"Tada!" Father says extending his hands outward.

"Merry Christmas! You now have a little sister...and!" Father says excited going to a box.

I look at who I assume is Edward.

He's very pale, like me, but he has scissors for hands.

"Hello." Edward says.

I try to say hello but I can't and wave instead.

"Father. Why isn't she talking?" Edward asks.

"Because she can't talk. At least not yet." Father says glancing back.

"Surprise!" Father says holding out a pair of hands.

I look curiously at them.

Why would he need them?

He looks fine to me.

Father then stops suddenly and starts frowning.

I look curiously at him.

Then Father starts to relax and then he collapses.

I then look up at Edward, what do we do?

"Looks like Father is taking a nap, would you like to hear some poetry?" He asks.

I look curiously at him.

"Follow me." He says walking off somewhere.

I follow Edward to a table where he picks up a book before reading out loud.
