When he decided that it was time he returned to his bed suddenly his vision got blocked again. It turned black and Cole had to stop right where he was trying to hold out his hand, figuring if he could hold onto some kind of support.
He was still inside the living room and he did not want to walk out of it when he could not see anything and then crash onto something like the nearby flower vase or the big pottery and wake up Mr. Evans, he did not want that.
So he waited where he was for a while. This thing was seriously becoming so irritating now. It did not have any mechanism to warn him or anything before the entire world became black for his eyes.
What if it happened in a time where he would get caught in an accident only because he had no idea what was there in the front because he turned blind for a flash of time.
