Summary

A man meets a deaf woman at the film development store and finds his knowledge of sign language to finally be of use.

Commentary

This story was good, but it felt a little rough. It felt like the author was not too sure what he wanted to do with the story. Maybe he had conflicting emotions about how the story would be read by others. Whether he did or did not, he did a good job with the characters, plot and descriptions.

The woman in this story, Liea, is deaf. Her hearing impairment is not used as a gimmick.
