Goodbye green world

Goodbye green world

The TV in the lounge was reasonable small with about a twenty four inch screen but the back to it was huge all boxed around in tacky black plastic. It also looked weighty and physically sturdy even if it had seen better day’s picture wise, however Emmet made it look easy as he pulled the cable out of the wall, throw the free view box that sat on top onto the floor and hulled the thing up into his arms.

A few members of the room around us gasped, Madeline laughed and said something about the aliens inside of Emmet making him a fucking lunatic but most of us were just rendered speechless including Esmee as we stared in disbelief at the scene that was unfolding.

“Emmet, don’t be a fucking dick, what are you doing?” Hev asked finding her hands before the rest of us could find our voices to ask the same question. Emmet did not answer he,r instead he silently slipped past her stepped over Madeline’s legs and went to the top of the stairs that was visible from the door of the living room.

“Mi, translate this for me, I have my hands full.” Emmet said turning from the top of the stairs to look back into the room his eyes of emerald fire now liquid rivers of watery jade that spilt down over the edges of his cheeks devastating me in seconds.  “We all deserve to live,” Emmet announced. “We all deserve to fit in and be accepted into the world whether we are able bodied or disabled, weather we can hear or we are deaf. All of us are important and we all have the ability to do great things. Also, all TV’s should display subtitles.” With that Emmet gave me a friendly wink, turned his back to the living room and through the TV down the stairs.
