I felt my father roll me around the fair, unable to see what was actually happening, for I was blind and paralyzed from the waist down. He kept describing everything to me, he usually did so I wouldn't feel left out. But really I wasn't listening to anything he was saying. I was too lost in thought for I had a strange feeling of being watched. Then Dad said he needed to use the restroom so we stopped next to one and he went inside, leaving me alone.
I heard a voice speak to me then... A dark and deep voice.
"Are you lost, child?" The man said slowly. I shook my head.
"Where are your parents?" I told him my father was in the restroom and would be out shortly.
"Hm... Are you blind?" I nodded. "Paralyzed?" Again I nodded. "How would you like it if I told you that I have a solution to your problem?" I widened my dead eyes.
"You mean you can make me see and walk again?" I asked with excitement.
"Yes, but only if you promise you can keep something a secret for me." I nodded and felt something soft and slightly fuzzy being placed in my hands. It was a stuffed toy. I fiddled with it a bit and realized it was ment to be a person... a doll.
"This is no ordinary doll, young lady. This doll, at night, by only one person, can turn real. He can heal and protect his owner till he or she dies." I felt the man lift my face with his fingers. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I thought about me being able to walk and see like a normal child.
"If you promise not to tell anyone about what he can do then I'll allow you to keep him. No charge of any kind." I nodded.
"I swear that I won't say a word. Just please let me become normal again... Please..." I heard the man laugh. He placed a kiss on my forehead and i feel asleep...
