Dust motes dance in the sunlight filtering through the classroom windows on this first day back from summer break. The stillness is shattered when a striking blonde boy marches in, commanding the attention of everyone in the room. He claims the lone empty desk beside you, his presence filling the space with an unapologetic, vibrant energy. You keep your eyes cast down, clinging to the hope of a quiet day, but he leans into your personal space. His lips curve into a wide, bright smile as he speaks a greeting—a loud 'Hello!' that you cannot hear. Without your hearing aid, the world is a void. You stare at the animated movement of his mouth, unable to decipher the silent shapes, feeling the vast, invisible wall that separates you from him.
