The blind actor

There was once a very famous actor. He was very good at acting and was chosen to act in many movies. He had many admirers and fans. He became so famous that he started to be arrogant with his friends and family.

One day, he was on his way back home from acting. Suddenly, on the way back home, he got into an accident. The accident made him go blind. Since then, he didn’t become very famous, didn’t act in a lot of movies and one day, lost his job. His friends also ran away from him. He was very lonely.

Weeks later, he told himself, “What’s the use of living. I’m lonely. I should just die.”

The man walked over to cliff. When he was going to make himself fall down, a young lady saw him and said, “Wait stop! Don’t do that! You’ll die!” She pulled the man’s hands far away from the cliff.

“I’m lonely, I lost my job and friends. What’s the use of me living on Earth? Just go a way you poor girl!” Shouted the man. Even though he was blind, he was still arrogant.

When the girl saw the man’s face, she said, “Your that famous actor right?” She was an admirer of the arrogant person.

“I think you mean were the famous actor. Now, let me go!” Said the man.

“Come, I’ll take care of you.” Said the lady as she pulled the man’s hands softly and led him into her car. When the man got into the car, the two of them drove off to the lady’s house. At the lady’s house, the lady took care of the blind man with care.

Years past and the blind man got his job back as an actor. He became famous again. He became very kind. The young lady was happy for him. Soon, the man fell in love with the young lady.

One day, a doctor saw him and asked, “Your that famous actor right?”

“Yes I am. Why?” Asked the blind man.

“You know, I can give you your eyesight back.” Said the doctor.

The blind man was happy to hear was the doctor had said so he accepted. However, the young lady that took care of him was sad. As she thought that if the blind man saw her, the blind man would not love her anymore because she wasn’t as beautiful as the other lady actresses.

The day that the blind man was going to get his eyesight back came. The blind man was very happy while the lady was very sad.

While the doctor was getting the room ready for the blind man, the lady and the blind man had a conversation.

“I’m afraid that if you see my face, you wouldn’t love me.” Said the lady in a sad voice.

“No I love you because of your kindness. Even if you’re not as pretty as the other woman in this world.” Said the man.

Before the lady could say another word, the blind man was called into the operation room.

When the operation ended…
The man was happy to get his eyesight back. He went to see the lady. But, the lady wasn’t at there. The man asked a lady, “Did you see a lady here just now?”

“Oh yes. She left a map for you to get back home.” Said the lady as she handed over the man a map.

‘She left?’ Said the man in his heart. The man then walked out of the hospital and used the map to get home.

When he reached home…
He saw that the lady wasn’t there. The man was very sad. He went out to find the lady.

Every day, the man would search for the lady. He would even ask his friends. But he didn’t have any pictures of her or any idea how the lady looked like because he was blind before this. A week had past and the man still hadn’t found the lady. He was still determined to keep on searching for the lady.

One day, he went to the cliff where he wanted to kill himself years ago. There, he saw a lady sitting on a bench. It was the lady that took care of him.

The lady heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw the man walking towards her. She was astonished.

The man was walking towards her. When the man reached the lady, the man and lady looked at each other for a few minutes. They both didn’t say a word especially the lady who was speechless.

Suddenly, the man turned away. He didn’t know that that was the lady that he was looking for because he had no idea of how the lady looked like as he was blind. Secondly is because the lady didn’t want to say anything. The lady also walked away.

So, the man kept on searching for the lady but, never found her…
