Xavier grabbed Winnie by the shoulders and exclaimed in fear, “Don’t scare me like that, Winnie! This isn’t funny!”

Winnie simply frowned at him in confusion as she wasn’t joking.

What is he saying? It’s clearly dark all around me! Wait a minute… No, this can’t be… They must be pulling a prank on me or something! I’ll switch on the lights and prove them wrong!

She turned around and fumbled for the light switch on the wall behind her.

After finding it, she pressed the button and plunged the room into pitch-black darkness.

She then pressed the button again, lighting the room up instantly.

However, her eyes did not pick up on any of those changes.

Realizing that she had most probably lost her vision, she swallowed anxiously as she called out to him, “Xavier?”

“I’m here.” Xavier held her hand tightly before instructing the doctor standing behind him, “Bring me the best eye specialist you’ve got! Do it now!”

The doctor was not expecting Winnie’s vision to be affected either. “Got it!” he said, then quickly went outside to make a call.

Although Winnie wasn’t able to see, she could hear everything around her just fine.

I remember hearing a lot of people entering the room, but only one of them stepped outside to make the call.

After taking a moment to predict where the doctors were standing in the room, she glanced past Xavier’s shoulder and said calmly, “I would like to have some time alone with my husband while waiting for the eye specialist to get here. Could you all please give us some space?”
