Chapter 6 - Lily did not

Lily could not hear my voice.

But she could feel vibration.

Watch movement.

Notice reactions.

One evening, I sat with her building wooden blocks.

A pan fell in the kitchen.

I turned my head.

Lily stared at me.

Then signed:

You heard.

I answered:

Felt it.

She frowned.

Another time:

The elevator chimed behind me.

I looked toward it before Vanessa entered.

Lily noticed.

Later she signed:

Sometimes ears work.

I said:

Sometimes.

Then:

After dinner bad.

I stared.

“What?”

She repeated:

After dinner bad.

May you like

I had not made that connection.

She had.
