Andrew:

We were inside the library, since the lunch room was too crowded and both, Kiley and I hate crowds.

Everybody here was quiet, maybe murmuring and whispering, but most were silent. Even their movements.

I wonder how it feels like to not speak in so long. It must feel horrible, I mean, at some point I would've screamed my lungs out.

Right now I feel like I have a box of words in my throat, ready to open.

But I can't speak; Kiley would think I'm making fun of her or something. So, I'll keep my mouth shut for the rest of the day.

Now that I come to think of it, I need to search for a book of signs. First, it would be helpful for my future and also I can help Kiley better.

Feeling a tap on my shoulder, my eyebrows raised as I glanced at Kiley, who was giving me a worried look. She signed.

'You okay?'

I nodded, giving her a small grin.
