Jay blinked slowly she was sitting on her couch at home she has done nothing for the past month since she went blind she hated it.
"Hearty and I are going to the animation awards are you coming?" Asked poppy's voice. Jay and her friends have been working on a movie for the awards for years but Jay had to quit because of her sudden disability "no" Jay replyed poppy was silent but Jay could tell she was giving her a sympathetic look. Jay grumbled "stop staring at me if your leaving, leave!" Poppy flinched and grabbed the keys "at least make yourself useful why were gone" she said Jay frowned as poppy walked outside to meet hearty.
A while after Jay's friends left She had finally decided to find something to do so she rummaged through her room and found something like a piece of paper but it felt like plastic on the top, Jay realised that it was a photo and she remembered what it was, a photo of her graduation she couldn't see it now but she remembered what it looked like, her, hearty and poppy standing with there arms wrapped around their teacher Jay remembered the smiles that lit there faces and the potential that glowed in there hearts.
She shut her blind eyes and pictured her old school, the broken water fountain, the red brick walls the willow tree that stood in the middle of the clearing the tall dropping leaves would sparkle with rain drops in the morning sunlight and you could be among many other people who lounged against the walls and talk and laugh.
But Jay prefered to sit in the shadows and watch the world go by.
That's how she meet hearty and poppy they had the same silent thoughts that connected them so they didn't need words. Jay's memory flickered to the morning she woke up and opened her eyes but didn't see the world again, she remembered the nights she lay in her bed tears rolling down her face as the deviation over powered her, Jay shuddered.
She placed down the photo on her abandoned drawing desk and grabbed her jacket and phone "call Uber" she told it she heard the phone ring and when it stopped she heared a voice "hello?" "Hello it's Jay I need you to take me to 'still water high school' now".
