Chapter 01

This is it, Noah. You can do this. You are strong.I let out a breath and started walking in what I assumed was the right direction to the reception. I stopped when my cane hit the desk. A voice that was feeble and shuddering which I thought to be of an old woman hit my eardrum."How may I help you?" A voice that automatically put a smile on my face."Uhmm… I’m new. My name is Noah Carter and I… I don’t know where to go" I stuttered out, completely a mess of nerves.This was the first time I was interacting with someone who wasn’t my mom, my step-dad or my sister. A completely new world for me, a completely new experience for me."Hello, Noah. I'm Linda. Don’t worry, I’m here to assist you. Please wait while I check your name on the list." she spoke, in her ever so gentle and sweet voice. I gave her a nervous smile and a nod.“Your name is on the lis

Chapter 02

It felt a lot hotter today, compared to yesterday because I could already feel the sweat seeping down my back and making my shirt gummy. The walk to school didn’t look like the best idea now where in the first place I was the one who actually comforted mum that I’d be putting my legs to use today and walk to school.The directions to school weren’t a problem for me because I already had them imprinted in my brain because of the times I and mum walked Eva to school and came back.I was really good with memories so, I knew I wouldn’t need the instructions today but just to be on the safe side I had my recorder with me.I wasn’t sure if I was excited to be in the school again but one thing that kept me going were those two hands on my cheeks because no matter what was waiting for me in the school, I was looking forward to knowing about those two hands.Everything in the school went slickly until half time. Just when the bell for

Chapter 03

Today was a normal day. No one tried to bully me. Keith was with me all day long. He told me that he wanted me to meet with his friends and I agreed.We had separate classes before recess time so as soon as the bell rang I got out of my seat and slowly made my way to the café. Yeah, I do walk slowly and being blind doesn't ease the predicament.I heard the sounds of the students from outside the café and entered the café."Noah! C'mon mate." I heard Keith. He led me to his friends and I sat down on the seat."This is Noah everyone, the guy I was talking about," Keith said to his friends. I was so nervous. What if they didn't like that I'm blind?"Hi, I'm Issac" I heard a cheery voice. I offered my hand to shake and he shook it."Nice to meet you, Issac" I smiled and then a shrill voice spoke."And I am Jessica and this is Anna""Jessie, he can't see," Keith said and I chuckled."Oh, sorry, my bad," s

Chapter 04

It was just another ordinary day for me. Bumped into few people on the way to school. Took the first class sitting at the back of the class and noted everything down. Went to the next class alone. Took the class sitting alone on the last bench and trying to figure out if I had the sense of vision would it be still the same? Or would people actually try to talk to me and be my friends?I walked out of the classroom as the bell for the recess rang. I was walking in the same direction I went yesterday because that was a place to actually relax."Noah!" I heard a shrill voice. I exactly knew who it was. I turned around."Jessica?" I asked."Yes. Noah, please don't take Keith's intentions wrong. He just wanted to be your friend. Please come and sit with us" She said."No, it's okay. I just want to be alone right now. I'll join you guys some other day." I requested. I was hoping maybe I could again meet that mystery guy today.I just followed the

Chapter 05

{A week later} I was sitting in a dark place but I knew it was my backyard. How did I know that? I don't know. I saw the light. I smiled because I knew it was the mystery guy. I stood up and waited for the ball of light to reach me. "Hey, I missed you," I spoke but I almost got shocked when it answered me. "I missed you too." A voice spoke. I could tell it was Mr Brown's voice. "Are you Mr Brown?" I asked it. "Who do you think I am, Noah?" "I don't know. You just sound like him." I shrugged. "Noah, it's all in your imagination. I am not even a real person." I looked at him in utter confusion. "What do you mean?" "First you didn't know who the person was and you never heard me speak, now you think it's your 'Literature' teacher, you are hearing his voice. Tomorrow you will think it's one of your friends and I'll sound ju

Chapter 06

"I thought you won't come." I said when I heard footsteps approaching me. I was sitting at our usual spot. "And what made you think that?" He questioned me as I felt him take a seat beside me. Knowing that he was my teacher only made me like him more because he was risking it all for me. "Nothing, it was just a thought." I shrugged, not knowing what to answer because that’s what I felt. There was no reason behind it. "I tried so hard but I couldn't keep myself away from you for more than a week." He sighed making me smirk because he did try to avoid me but failed. "Is that so Mr. Brown?" I wiggled my eyebrows, nudging him in the stomach with my elbow. I heard him chuckle. "You do know that you are adorable, right?" He cooed making my cheeks hot. I bit my lip, turning away my head. "So now we are on speaking terms?" I tried to change the topic but he wasn’t letting it go. "You look more adorable when you blush." He spoke making

Chapter 07

"Now where were you?!" I heard mum speak in very angered tone. "I told you that I was with-" I got interrupted. "Hey mate!" I heard Keith's voice and I sighed. "I-" before any word could come out of my mouth I got cut off again. "I get a call from you saying you are with Keith and Keith comes here to check on you because apparently you had blacked out in school and was taken to the hospital?! Why was I not informed?!" she said with a stern tone. "Mum listen-" she cut me off, again. "When did you start lying Noah? I clearly remember I didn't teach you how to lie so where did you learn that from?!" she asked. "Mum I-" she cut me off again. "Why are there bruises on your face every time you come home?!" "Not every time mum. I-" she cut me off again. "I didn't expect this childish-" this time I cut her off. "MUM!" "Please listen to me." I said calmly. "No Noah, I need to call your sch

Chapter 08

It had been a week that Mr. Brown and I had changed our meeting spot. It was no longer the back garden. It was in Mr. Brown's office. We both didn't know what Mateo was doing there that day but we both didn't want to risk anything so, we didn't investigate. Meeting in Mr. Brown's office was a risk too. Anyone could walk right on us anytime, teachers, students and the worst principal but we only had this place to meet. He had asked me a week ago about visiting his house and never brought up that conversation again. Mateo had caught up with me after that conversation in café. He asked for my forgiveness again and again. At first, I thought he was just trying to impress and win Keith back but when I forgave him, he didn't make a move that showed he was doing it for Keith. To be honest, I wanted Keith and Mateo to get back together but I was happy to know that for once he was actually sorry and was not trying to impress his boyfriend, well ex-boyfriend. There was one mor

Chapter 09

I could hear the light music ringing in my ears as I was in my half sleep. I fluttered my eyes open and rolled in the smooth sheets, smiling to myself when I realized that they were silk and I was not home but at Mr. Brown’s place. I love silk sheets but they are expensive so I don't ask mum to buy them for me but they always feel good. I sat up, yawning and stretching. The music was still playing lightly and it was very refreshing. I got up and searched for my cane. After few minutes of roaming around my room like a lost puppy, I finally found it. Walking out of the door, I had no idea where I was going. I hoped I wouldn’t bump into things but I guess that house was really huge because I didn’t trip over anything. I could hear distant chattering voices over the music now and I instantly recognized one as Mr. Brown’s. I smiled and tried to follow that voice. The voice became clearer and the music started fading as I walked further. "I

Chapter 10

My feet dragged me out of the class as if they had mind of their own as they rushed me to Ryan’s office during the lunch break but of course how would I call it a day without bumping into someone. "Oh, I’m sorry." I instantly apologized considering it was my fault. "Noah, where did you go yesterday?" I heard Keith's voice. Thank God I only bumped into Keith but then his words registered and I shivered thinking about yesterday’s event. "I... Uh... I went home." I tried to lie but considering my fucked up history in lying I failed miserably. "You’re lying. You missed my trials. Mateo was looking for you. Why was Mateo looking for you?" He questioned skeptically. "I promised him to help him for his math test but I had to go." I hurriedly spoke because I wanted to escape this interrogation. I was so fidgety. "What? When did you two become friends, Noah?” His tone was hands down very rude and filled of jealousy. "Tone it down, Keith
