Best Prompt "Burst"

The Prompt: There's a guy sitting on a park bench reading a newspaper.


There's a guy sitting on a park bench reading a newspaper. Suddenly, a woman walks over and sits next to him:
        "What are you reading?" asked the woman.
        "Nothing," replied the man. "I can't read. I can't see for that matter."
        "Then why does it look like you are reading that newspaper?'
        "I just don't want to feel left out of this world by not reading things."
The man could not tell, but the woman's face shifted from a curious to a more concerned expression. She, the President of the Book Readers of America, wished she could help out this poor, blind man. But then she got an idea.
Because of her seven-figure salary, she had the money to give this man vision. She grabbed him, lifted him up from the bench, and brought him to the nearest optometrist. There, he was given laser eye surgery, which allowed him to see for the first time. The woman paid for the entire operation. The man thanked the surgeon, the nurse, and the secretary, and then left the office, seeing everything except for the woman who gave him his eyes.
