Dart
Do you know the saying he/she can shoot darts from there eyes? Well in this story I can. My name is Todd Walker. I can't see very well and was very stupid. Also I was a trouble maker. It all started one day when I was in 7th grade. It was the last period of the day and I was dreaming about the great weekend ahead of me. How my friends and I were going to go to a water park for six days. I was in science, Mrs. Panini saw me daydreaming and said,
“ Todd what was the last thing I said about cells?”
“ Uh they like to go to water parks.” Which I hoped was the correct answer.
“ No Todd that is not even close. You have a detention for not listening.”
Wow what a start to my weekend. Detention ended at 4:00. I got home and my mom yelled at me for getting a detention. The conversation went like this,
“ Todd never ever get a detention again. If you do I will take away all of your action figures.”
“ Ok mom I start trying to paying attention in class.” I stated.
“ What you don't pay attention in class! She exclaimed, I'm not taking you to the water park until you get your grades up.”
“ That's a ripoff I was looking forward to this vacation. This was the only thing I looked forward to. I hate you I'm never coming out of my room.”
Once my dad came home he asked,
“ I thought you were going to the water park. What happened? “
“ Todd got a detention and then told me he doesn't pay attention in school. I think you should go talk to him he “says” he won't ever talk to me again.”
“ Ok I will “ said my father.
My father knocked on my door. I didn't answer since I thought it was my mother. Soon he opened the door and said,
“ Son I hope you learn from these mistakes.”
“I'll try dad I'll try.”
Finally I started to cry my dad comforted me and said,
“ Why don't you apologize to your mom she feels really sad that you are mad at her.”
“ That sounds like a good idea. I've also been down in the dumps.”
We went to a nice restaurant. After that I was so tired I went to sleep. I woke up to my mother shouting,
“Todd wake up this is an emergency!”
However I couldn't get my eyes open I yelled back,
“Help me I can't get my eyes open!”
She came in my room and let out a high pitched screamed.
“ Oh my gosh your eyes have darts in them”
I almost fainted my mom said,
“ I have to take you to the ER.” and shouted to my dad. “ I'm taking him to the hospital.” “ Watch the house!”
Once we got there the doctor didn't ask any questions but just put me in a surgery room. I was so frightened to speak. I just layed down on the bed and waited. The doctor gave me some medicine and I was asleep.
I woke up and I could see again right in front of me were to six inch long darts with short sharp tips at the end. I was startled and said to my mother,
“You weren't lying about darts in my eyes.”
My mother just shook her head. After a long talk with the surgeon we drove home. Once we got to our street there were police cars all lined up. We drove up the street our house was blown up. My eyes had a scorching pain in them. I squinted something fast went by my eyes my mother just stared at me and said,
“ Oh my gosh you just shot darts out of your eyes.”
The next thing we knew a hobo with a ripped up shirt came up to us. Once he got closer and closer I noticed it was my dad! I couldn't believe it. I couldn't control myself I jumped out of the car window and went flying over to him. Yes I flew to him. As I hugged him said,
“ Today was a miracle day.” I was puzzled how did he think this was a good day. He said,
“Our house is gone but me and you both survived. You survived the darts and I survived the explosion.”
The last thing he said for today was this,
“ The only important thing is that we survived.” Finally he fell asleep.
This is the origin of dart thank you for reading this.
