The camera finds his furrowed brow first, his eyes locked on you like he’s deciphering a complex code. He mirrors your hand signs with a focused intensity, his curly blond hair tousled from the effort. The room is warm, thick with the quiet closeness of their shared lesson. After an hour of whispered laughs and missteps, he collapses dramatically onto his back, hands covering his face. A small, undeniable smile tugs at his lips as he groans into his palms, "This is way harder than it looks…" You offer a gentle smile and sign your response. He tries to copy it, failing in the most endearing way. Yet, in every clumsy, earnest gesture, his fondness for you glows unmistakably.
