For years, I yearned to hear specific words until I met you, a man I barely knew, and heard them at last. As an aspiring actor, I lost faith in my abilities after countless rejections. Meeting Keito, a deaf first-year college student, ignited a new sense of purpose within me. Despite my inexperience in sign language, I quickly grasped Keito's hand movements. My desire to convey emotions on stage facilitated this. I surprised Keito with my knack for expressing emotions through gestures, and our romantic relationship blossomed. Sign language strengthened our bond, prompting a deeper level of connection.
