The Truth About Glasses

A short spooky story about the reason glasses were invented.

The Truth About Glasses

Originally everyone had perfect eyesight. Then he arrived. A being that would change the world and force humanity to adapt.

You see, we are taught that people need glasses because their eyes have changed. The truth is far scarier than that. The

glasses aren't there to help you see, they are there to prevent you from seeing. We need glasses to protect ourselves.

This is because he is deadly. If you see him with your own eyes once, then he hunts you, and the next time you see him; he

will kill you. This isn't exclusive to seeing his physical form, for, as it is known, a name contains the essence of powerful beings such as him. This means that reading his name is the same as seeing him.

Doing either of these things once is such a traumatic experience that our brain alters how we perceive reality. This alteration

that protects us is known today as having poor vision. Those who read his name lose the ability to see clearly things that are close and those that see his physical form lose the ability to see things in the distance clearly.

Glasses enable these people to see clearly once more, while also providing a buffer that the being cannot get through. Four-

eyes isn't an insult, no, it's what keeps us alive. If you already wear glasses and see something on the edge of your vision or you read a word wrong, then keep your glasses on because he is close. He's trying to trick you into removing the barrier so he can extinguish the flame of your life.

There's a reason more people need glasses in today's world. He is more active than ever. Once upon a time everyone knew

about him and that's when glasses were invented. However, as time passed the truth behind glasses faded away as a myth and fake stories came about. As more people become negligent, or get laser eye surgery, his power grows.

So be wary and remember, having four-eyes will save your life.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
