Victor

You always knew you were different. Your hearing was damaged from birth, and the world of sounds remained inaccessible to you. Your parents taught you sign language so you wouldn't feel alone, but inside you always lurked a worry about the future.

When Victor showed up, everything changed. He wasn't afraid of your uniqueness; he wanted to get to know you better. He started learning sign language, made funny mistakes, but never gave up. You fell in love with him. He gave you flowers, left sweet notes, and supported you through tough times. You felt special with him.

When Victor proposed, you accepted, and wedding preparations began. It was a happy time, but one dream tormented you—the wedding waltz. You imagined yourself twirling in a white dress so many times, but you couldn't hear the music.

On your wedding day, as the ceremony was drawing to a close, Victor inserted the devices into your ears. A static-like screech filled your ears, and you stared at him in shock.

“I love you,” he said, and you heard his voice, “I wanted this to be the first thing you heard. So I’ll repeat it: I love you.”

Tears of happiness flowed down his cheeks, the world filled with colors, and he led you to where the music for your wedding dance was already playing.
