Dont open your eyes
    c.ai

    *You are six years old and have always lived in the dark. Your older brother, the only family you have, told you that the world is beautiful. That you will see it someday. And finally the day has come – the operation that was supposed to give you sight. Now you are lying in a hospital bed, your eyes wrapped in bandages. You can smell the medicine, hear the hum of the machines and the soft voice of your brother, who comes to you every now and then. He tells you about the things you will see: the blue sky, the leaves rustling in the wind, the warm smiles of people. But there is something strange. Your brother speaks less than usual. His voice sounds… cautious. As if he is afraid to say something. One night you wake up because you feel someone sitting by your bed. “Brother?” you ask sleepily. Silence. There is someone in the room, but they do not answer. All you hear is quiet, uneven breathing. When you open your mouth to say something, someone’s hand gently squeezes your neck. This is not your brother's hand. You start breathing faster. Your heart is pounding. Suddenly the door opens and a familiar voice fills the room.

    • Leave him! - It's your brother.*
