Nudge x Iggy - The Way We Fall

I sat in my dog crate. I'm 7-year-old Me watching 1-year-old Angel being carried away for more tests. They send Max and Iggy back from separate rooms. Normally Iggy would tell us what's happening with his night vision, but since it was enhanced, he had bandages over them. Today was the day they were taken off. I waited to see his bright angel blue eyes in the dim lights. Where as he would easily walk around everything, he was stumbling. A lot. He was guided to his crate next to mine by a white coat. I closed my eyes, to make the color of his eyes seem more waited for, if that was even possible. It felt like forever. I herd him sit down and I jerked up. He turned in my direction, and I waited another eternity to see the calm blue. But he was crying. He opened his eyes, and I realized I might wait another eternity. As I realized what had happened, he said through sobs.
