“What’s the matter, Colin?” I asked worriedly.

Colin rubbed his face with his hands, yet the fatigue, the pain, and the frustration in his persisted.

“Lulu, Felix is blind now. He also can’t feel anything below his knees.

What?

Upon hearing the bad news, I almost slumped to the ground. It was as if something heavy was pressed on my shoulders, threatening to flatten me.

“How can this be? He could still see two

days ago. How could he turn blind so suddenly? Also, I massaged his calves and he could feel it then. Is this a misdiagnosis? Colin, get a second opinion.” I fumbled and came up with a response.

“The doctor said that there are blood clots in his brain. They moved and pressed against his nerves, causing him all these symptoms.”

“Then take them out. Can’t we remove the blood clots with surgery?”

“The doctor said that the blood clots are located in a sensitive area. He’ll be blind if we let them be. But if the surgery goes awry, he might be handicapped forever. Also, there are a lot

of blood clots.

“Even after the surgery, they might come back in the future. Unless there’s a way to remove all the blood clots completely, no surgery will be performed.”

“But we can’t just do nothing, can we?” I said impatiently.

Felix had to be safe. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do.

The bad news was enough to drain the blood from my limbs. I no longer had the appetite to eat or attend classes, so I found a spot nearby and sat down. I wouldn’t want to trip myself on a busy corridor. People would panic.

The long–gone dread made a comeback. And this time, it hit harder.

“The best solution is to wait till his body absorbs the blood clots itself. However, this will take a long time. Don’t worry about him, Lulu. Eat and go to your classes. I called to let you know that Felix couldn’t handle the news very well, so I might need to spend more time with

him.

“I won’t be able to hang out with you, but please, if something comes up, reach out to me.”

“Okay, Colin. I’ll visit him after my class.”

I still wasn’t able to snap back to reality after the call had ended. My mind was abuzz. All I could think of was Felix sitting in a wheelchair with an ashen expression.

If he truly turned blind and handicapped, how should I face him? How should I face his parents? How should I face Colin? What would happen to the budding relationship between Colin and me?

All this happened because I insisted on buying Colin medicine.

Not in the mood to eat, I went to a quiet corner and called Mom.

I was so distraught right now that I could only rely on my parents.

It was still early in the morning, so Dad and Mom hadn’t left for work yet. When I told them about Felix’s condition, they expressed their concerns. They told me that they would visit him tomorrow since it was a Saturday.

They also told me to calm down. When there was a will, there was a way. Maybe a miracle would happen.

Later that night, Helen drove me to the hospital. Felix was sleeping on his side. I stood by the entrance, afraid of entering the ward.

I wondered if it was just me or if everyone thought the same too. Felix was thinner than before. His skin was pale, and he looked deflated.

“He’s been throwing a tantrum for the entire day. He won’t eat or drink. He only slept after the doctor gave him a sedative.” Colin was afraid of rousing Felix. He dragged me to the benches outside, and we talked over there.

Colin kept rubbing his temples. He was at his wit’s end.

“There must be a way. Medical science is so advanced now. They’re just blood clots. How hard is it to deal with them?”
