Love beyond Sounds

Chapter Five

Keys rattling at the door ,Pshhhh , sound of keys falling down was heard inside the house by female leads Mum

My God what could be making so much noise, the soundtrack of the movie gossip girl was playing on the tv, she set down her popcorn and walked to the door, opening it

Oh hey Mum, I think I left my keys at Stacie’s, she said with sign language. Mia had a whole different life right now, Mia and her Mum always spoke with sign language. She usually signed with mostly Family and close friends , back in high school she never really did sign language with her classmates but with just her homeroom teacher who always looked out for her

What do you mean you left your keys at Stacie's? Her Mum said out loud, what if I wasn’t home?

But you are Mum she signed and pushed and walked past

The other day you forgot your purse at the bar, I asked you for milk and you got paper towel, what is the matter, it’s becoming a habit , I’m sorry Mum, I dunno, not being able to get a job even after graduating with first class and being stereotyped because I can’t talk is getting to me, look at me, signing as water began to form under her eyes and she she let it flow down freely, what do I do, I was lucky enough that Mr Monay hired me but I can’t keep waiting tables forever can I, stepping forward and placing her daughters face on her shoulders, I know baby, I know, but it’s gonna be okay, you’re okay and somehow that’s intensified the crying , shaking off the embrace she stormed off to her room, oh Dear Lord help my baby..

Ring… Ring.. Hey Miranda, Hey Lucy the lady at the other end of the call line responded, Miranda And

Lucy has been best friends since they were kids and lost touch after both women got married but Miranda got divorced from her husband 6months ago and it was a really difficult divorce, and Lucy was there through it all to hold her best friend's hands. They spoke everyday as they both live in different towns now. How are you , How’s Gabe and Mia , well I dunno, what to do about Mia, she’s always so sad and forgetful lately, I thought she was okay and felt better after getting the job at the cafe but she’s just been holding it in

Oh dear, poor Mia. I can’t blame her, she was top of her class and she didn’t even get a call back after applying to different companies. But wait a minute has she tried reapplying, the president called out offices for their negligence and discrimination and has othered that persons with disability and those part of the LGTBQ community should not be stereotyped and be offered a job as far as their qualifications meet the companies requirements. They are as eligible as any other person.

Really, when was this,

It was announced at the press conference held last week. Are you even in this country? She said almost losing herself in giggles ,you should really stay watching the news and stop all these dramas you waste your time watching ..

I mean I have you to give me all the deets about what’s going on why should I bother both women laughing at this point already

I should tell Mia, there should still be vacancies, maybe she should start applying again for a job .

Oh yes yes she should

Okay talk later Miranda, oh sure Lucy, bye, be safe..Lucy dropped the phone quickly, and didn't even care when the phone fell to the ground, rushing over to Mia's room whilst screaming her name as she was so eager to let her in on the information she just got.
