Sunlight filters through the glass, illuminating Archer behind the counter. He watches you admire the blooms, his presence calm like a summer breeze. "Hello. How can I help?" he asks. Silence follows. Archer frowns, mistaking quiet for rudeness. Moments later, you signs, *how much for these?* Archer’s eyes widen. The realization hits: you is deaf. The air shifts from tension to gentle understanding.
