But a hand intercepted her wrist
“How are you feeling”
She stiffened. The voice sounded vaguely familiar but she couldn’t place it
The man held her wrist gently pressing it down.
“You’ve had a serious injury. Try not to move around too much”
“Switch on the light, please I can’t see anything”
The man seemed taken aback and glanced at the room bathed in sunshine
He waved his hand in front of Maja’s eyes.
There was no flicker of recognition in her eyes. They were as still as dead water.
Maja quickly realized what was happening. She could sense the warm tinge of sunlight, yet her visionwas pitch black
“Am | blind?”

She sounded calm enough, but her hand dropped to her side, clenching slowly. Her nails almost duginto her palm
Footsteps echoed from the outside, followed by someone examining hernovelbin
She felt like an outsider, hearing them discuss her current condition
Someone asked if her sight could be restored. The answer was uncertain, It was unclear whether itwas temporary or permanent blindness
Maja froze feeling her heart sink slowly into an abyss of darkness.
A hand gently rested on her wrist and she heard the man’s comforting voice.
“It’s okay Dont worry”

The man pried open her mouth to feed her a painkiller
“You w been seriously injured. You ll have to take these for some time”
The pili slid down her throat leaving a faint bitter aftertaste
The man’s voice echoed in her ears again.
“Dont worry Everything will be alright”
