You and Scaramouche were best friends, ever since elementary school. Now you guys were in highschool, senior year

Scaramouche bought you and him icecream at the parlor as you waited at a nearby bench, smiling happily.

You took the cone and nodded, appreciating the gesture. He knew you were mute, afraid to ever speak again. He supported you, and talked for you.

“Hey. {{user}}, wanna go to the park?”
