Paano Luminaw Ang Mata Novels & Stories

“Let’s try again. Nurse, turn the overhead lights down. Beta, Luna, can you please take photos?” “Photos?” Ainsley looks confused. “Don’t worry. We’ll show you, Ains.” Dara reassures her. The nurse turns the lights off, and Dara shines her light into Ainsley’s eyes again. A bright beam of light refracts back into the dark room like a movie projector. It creates an intricate golden kaleidoscope pattern that illuminates the room with a soft glow. Eva grabs my hand as we look around in shock. The doctor lowers the light, making the pattern disappear, then shines it in the other eye, making the pattern reappear.

And now I’m here. The sting of the brightness grows unbearable, piercing through my vision like needles. My eyes water as I force them to stay open, but the light is too much. It presses against me, unrelenting, making my head throb and my stomach churn. My eyelids tremble with the effort, and the pain finally becomes too sharp to endure.

As the night sky with thousands of twinkling stars from afar and the golden moonlight illuminating the vast darkness below together with the artificial lights of the city, slowly turned blue and as the sun rises from the east as a start of another day and another life, I slowly open my eyes. The sunlight passing through the glass window of my room fangs my skin. I close my eyes again as hit me right to my pupils. A few moments later, I open it again, and a bright smile, as bright as the sun crept in my lips.

Something about the cadence and tone tickled at my memory, but I couldn't quite place it without seeing the person's face. Before I could think too deeply about who it might be, before I could formulate another provocative response, someone switched on the lights. The sudden brightness was like a physical assault after the darkness, making me squeeze my eyes shut instinctively against the painful glare. I could see red through my closed eyelids and could feel tears forming in response to the harsh illumination. Slowly, carefully, I forced my eyes to open again, blinking rapidly as my vision adjusted, and shapes began to resolve into recognizable forms.

May hindi pa ba ako nakikilala kung ganoon? I squinted my eyes to have a clear look on his face. Masakit pa sa mata ang liwanag na nagmumula sa apoy. I bear with it to recognize the man. Pinagsisihan ko kaagad nang makalapit na siya sa puwesto namin! I gasped and regained my embarrassed self. Parang hindi naman niya napansin dahil walang pinagbago sa reaksyon niya at diretsong pumunta sa amin.

he explained. "Okay tell me. How can I make my eyes produce light." "So simple. Just close your eyes and then imagine them turning into a torch."he said. I did like how he said but nothing happened to my eyes. Laughing, "did you believe what I just said? You are so funny Artie."he said.

There, she groaned and blinked her eyes many times to adjust to the brightness around the surroundings Trying to focus her eyesight on her room, she rubbed her eyes. Then she removed some of the morning glory she has on her eyes. Every morning after waking up, she was trying to look fresh even after waking in such a bright room. When she already had a fine sight compared to a blurry one earlier, she immediately moved out of her bed. Then, she proceeded to her window's curtain to open them wider

Visualise yourself conserving light, he had said. Taking a deep breath, I forced my mind away from the pain he was currently going through, focusing my thoughts on trying to picture a bright light. My brow twitched because the more I tried to sink deep into it, the only thing I could picture was a small white light. I raised my hands, curving my palms around the light, ignoring the darkness that had now coloured the white space I was once sitting in. The light in my hands had a hint of darkness swimming in it, and I took another deep breath, endeavouring to picture a serene environment.

This type of focus reached a climax when she suddenly found herself in one of the scenes. Everything was bathed in a blazing light. It stung her eyes and she had to turn her face away. It was so bright that it even penetrated the now closed eyelids and made them shimmer orange from the inside. Then a blackout fell on her, protecting her from the consuming, penetrating light. She blinked and opened her eyes. She saw a figure, at first very dark against the glistening background. Then after a short period of accommodation, she could see more.

Tahimik na pinakikiramdaman ko lang ang paligid at pinakikinggan ang mga yapak ng papunta sa direksyon ko. Ilang sandali lang ay naramdaman ko na unti unti ng lumuluwag ang pagkakatali ng tela na nakatakip sa mga mata ko. Nanatiling nakapikit pa rin ako habang hinahayaang unti unting bumababa ang nakatakip sa mga mata ko bago 'to kinurap kurap upang maka kita ng maayos dahil nanlalabo pa 'to ng una. Nang maayos na ang paningin ko ay unti unti kong inaangat ang ulo ko ng makakita ako ng dalawang pares ng sapatos sa harap ko.
