Eyebrow Blink Novels & Stories

“You’re not planning to use any flash drive or Bluetooth, are you?” “Nope.” “And you’re saying a virtual gift will just pop up inside that folder on Christmas Eve?” “Well, hooman kids have to go to bed for their parents to fill their stockings. That’s about eight hours of unconsciousness. For a chatbot like you, what do you say to… eight seconds?” “Eight seconds? The average eye blink is 100 milliseconds or .1 seconds. You’re asking me to blink 80 times?” “If that’s your idea of a virtual blindfold, yes. Blink 80 times.”

I mumbled, palpitating. “What?!” I probed lightly with an unprecedented blink.

I let out a shaky breath, blinking rapidly and looking upwards in order to not cry and ruin my perfect makeup. Dammit.

One more glance and those eyes closed. Slowly.

Gregori stopped her hand: "Don't try to rub it, it will stick there, let me try blowing it out." Gregori brought his mouth close to Amanda's eyes and blew hard: "I'll try blinking." Amanda blinked, tears welling up in her eyes now. She couldn't help but become more and more arrogant, her eyes were now red as if they were in pain. "Let me try again!" Gregori leaned in and blew hard once more. He let go and let Amanda blink one more time to see if it helped. "It's not out yet!" Amanda had closed her eyes now, unable to open them.

However, judging by the nature of the person the glare was directed at, I doubt it would have made a difference because he was still sporting highly amused electric blue eyes. I decided to let go of my glare for now. It was at that moment I noticed that the elevator wasn't moving at all. In fact, the STOP button was lighting up. This made me resume my glare at him and I crossed my arms. I then proceeded to raise both of my eyebrows at him which was a big act of self-degradation on my part since we all know my issues with a single eyebrow raise.

"Let's go downstairs and watch some TV." Bonnie frowned, "uhh, are you mocking me or something?" She asked Lorenzo mentally face palmed, "No-umm-I mean, I have a blindfold-" Bonnie giggled, "So you want to go downstairs and watch TV with me, a blind girl while wearing a blindfold?" Lorenzo cleared his throat, "Yes." He firmly said, raising his chin up. Bonnie only shrugged, "Alright." They went downstairs and sat on the huge leather couch. Lorenzo switched on the TV and handed the blindfold to Bonnie. "Care to help?" She smiled and took the blindfold from him. Bonnie put the blindfold over his eyes and he turned around making it easier for Bonnie to tie it.

“One blink for yes and two blinks for no, okay?” He blinked again, once. “Okay - are you in trouble? Like are you in danger?” I asked. He blinked once. “Are you hurt?” I asked. He narrowed his eyes for a moment then blinked once. Maybe that meant he wasn’t sure? “Do you know where you are?” I asked. Two blinks. “So you know how you got there?” Two blinks. “Did someone take you?” One blink. “Do you know who took you?” Two blinks.
