“G hme and ask yur mummy abut yur blind brther! I am surprised yu didn’t knw that he is as blind as a bat!” Hearing Nathan’s wrds, I wanted t land a blw n him fr making fun f my tw-year-ld brther, David, but I was mre desperate (渴望的) t find ut the truth.
With a misty (模糊的) visin, I ran hme as fast as I culd. Still ut f breath, I questined, “Is David blind?” Mther turned t me with tears in her eyes. “Yes, he’s brn blind.” It was a heartbreaking mment. I knew clearly the dream f shwing David my cl sccer mves r playing vide games with him ended cruelly. “Why did yu keep the truth frm me? I ften wndered why he didn’t lk at me r why he was always tripping ver (被绊倒) things and I thught it was because he was still t yung...” Befre I culd cntinue any further, mther hugged me and cried, “I’m srry, Caleb. Dad and I just didn’t knw hw t tell yu.”
Suddenly, it struck me that David was blind but he culd still hear the whle cnversatin. Nt wanting him t be affected by it, I stpped crying and went frward and embraced him. “I lve yu s much, David.” Wrry crept upn (开始影响) me: Hw hard life wuld be fr him!
Little did I knw that David was t inspire (鼓舞) me s greatly.
As David grew up, he was fairly strng-willed. Despite the challenges that he faced, he cntinued t attend the schl fr visually impaired (视力受损) children. He insisted he wuld take the bus hme n his wn. Often, he wuld walk thrugh the main dr, lking sheepish (不好意思的) and saying the same phrase, “Srry Mum, I am late. I barded the wrng bus again.”
Tugh as life was, there was always silver lining (一线希望) f misfrtune. Despite nt being able t see, he culd play a piece f music after listening t it, being played nce n the pian. He even dreamed f playing sl (独奏) ne day n stage. Luckily fr him, the schl had discvered David’s extrardinary (非凡的) talent.
