A blind guy suddenly gets his sight back right in the middle of his own wedding and just freezes when he sees his bride for the first time…
Scott! A soft and melodious voice called his name. You have a visitor! For a moment Scott thought it might be his parents, but the voice was unfamiliar to him. Hello? The female voice spoke again, closer now.
My name is Tina. I… I saw what happened. I was walking down the street when the accident occurred.
I was so worried, I wanted to know how you were. Scott’s heart raced. There was something in her voice, a kindness and genuine concern that touched him deeply.
Hi, Tina, he replied, trying to smile in the direction from which the voice came. Thank you for coming. It’s… it’s very kind of you.
Tina approached, and Scott caught a faint scent of flowers she wore. It was comforting and somehow familiar. How are you feeling? she asked, her voice full of compassion.
Scott hesitated for a moment before answering honestly. Scared, he admitted. The doctors say the vision loss might be temporary, but… what if it’s not? He felt a gentle hand touch his.
Hey, don’t think like that, Tina said firmly. After witnessing that accident, I’m sure you are strong, Scott. You will get through this, whatever the outcome.
At that moment, a nurse entered, bringing Scott’s lunch. Tina, without hesitation, offered to help him eat. With patience and gentleness, she guided Scott’s hand, describing each item on the plate and helping him navigate the meal.
That first visit from Tina marked the beginning of a deep and transformative friendship. She returned every day, bringing with her stories from the outside world, music for Scott to listen to, and above all, hope. When Scott was discharged from the hospital, Tina continued to be a constant presence in his life.
She helped him adapt to his new reality, describing the world around him with vivid and colourful words. Scott discovered that Tina was a teacher at a local kindergarten. She loved her job and spoke enthusiastically about her students and the lessons she taught.
Scott, in turn, shared his passion for music, often singing to her or teaching her about music theory. As the months passed, their friendship blossomed into something deeper. Scott found himself eagerly anticipating Tina’s visits, his heart racing at the sound of her footsteps approaching.
He loved the sound of her laughter, the way she described the world to him, and the kindness in every touch. Tina, in turn, was increasingly enchanted by Scott’s strength and determination. She admired how he faced each challenge with courage and good humour, how his passion for music remained unwavering even in the darkness…
