my sister sat on the floor,
She asked if she could go the the library today.
"What kind of book do you want?" I asked.
"There's a new boy in our class and he's deaf."
I felt sorry for the kid, knowing that he wouldn't make any friends.
Despite my sister's ambition to be his friend
Over the year,
I watched my sister study the book,
all the pictures and signs became fluid in her hands,
And a smile on her face everyday,
after she came home from school.
Her freindship becoming a reality,
not a far-fetched dream.
Today,
I watched as
she signed,
"I do."
