Suddenly, I remembered the boy who had pushed me off the swing.
“You’re the reason I lost my sight!” I cried.
Nigel admitted he’d recognized me when we first met. He had spent years studying medicine, hoping to restore my vision, but he hid his identity because he was ashamed and afraid I’d reject him.
