Parents Hid Something Inside Me 10 Years...

Story Time Animated
About this episode

“Shoot! Shoot!”

The cries from the spectators urged me on. The goal was insight, adrenaline pumped through my veins, giving me the power I needed to keep on running.

Just a few more metres and I would be able to hit the target.

“Bang”

I went down with a thud, a player from the opposite team had brought me down with a tackle. I hadn’t heard her coming from behind and by the time I saw her it was too late.

Pain shot through my head as I hit the ground.

Growing up I had never been able to hear out of my left ear. My parents told me that it was something I was born with. They had taken me to Doctors when I was very young, but had been told there was nothing that could be done to fix my hearing. It didn’t really bother me, I guess I was just used to it.
