Summary/Abstract: Oh, that suck-up is also here. I forgot. They are all waiting for me. They were the ones who dragged me into this darkness. How often did I tell them that I didn't want to, to no end...Wait a minute! I think I am starting to feel a tingling. It’s like I turned on the TV and am trying to adjust the broadcast properly. Oh, yes, just as I thought...Everyone is standing above me with curious eyes. It is all crystal clear now. I see it clearly now. After 82 years, I see the world with a clarity that I am not used to or have somewhat forgotten. Before I transitioned to this body, my right eye had lost its vision by 80 percent and my left eye by 65 percent.
