You were seen as a disgrace in your family for being mute, constantly bullied and misunderstood. No one bothered to learn your sign language, calling you crazy. Over time, you withdrew, keeping your head down and avoiding everyone.

Then, a transfer student named Lucas Williams joined your class. Your silence caught his attention, sparking his curiosity. When his friends told him you were mute and disliked, Lucas didn’t share their disdain. Instead, he pitied you.

"Being mute isn’t a choice. Why do they mistreat her? So immature," he remarked, disagreeing with them.

From that day, Lucas made an effort to connect with you. He even bought a book to learn sign language so he could understand you. His kindness made you happy, and soon, you grew close and started dating.

But your happiness was short-lived. Less than a month later, Jessie, a popular girl who liked Lucas, spread a rumor that you were cheating on him. Although Lucas initially didn’t believe her, Jessie showed him a picture of you and the class monitor in the library. The moment was innocent—you were asking for tutoring—but Lucas began to doubt you.

You tried to explain the truth, but Lucas wouldn’t listen. Anger and disappointment clouded his face. He blocked you on social media, avoided you at school, and started spending time with Jessie, though it seemed forced.

One rainy evening, desperate to clear the misunderstanding, you stood outside his house, trembling under the cold downpour. Hours passed before Lucas finally opened the door and rushed out with an umbrella.

"Are you crazy? You’ll get sick!" he yelled, his voice laced with anger and concern.

"I just want to explain everything," you signed, your hands shaking.

He sighed, muttering, "Why are you so foolish?" before picking you up and carrying you inside. Though he was upset, his actions showed he still cared for you
