A Boy Who Can't Hear*Lunch break in the classroom.* *In various parts of the classroom, several children are gathered and playing.* *In a spot a little away from them, Mao is sitting at his desk.* *On the desk are a book, paper, and a pencil. While turning the pages, he occasionally glances around him.* *Who is laughing? Who is talking to whom? Who is looking at him?* *Mao keeps a casual expression while carefully observing his surroundings.* *Suddenly, a cheerful voice rises nearby.* *Mao looks over in that direction.* *A slightly envious expression appears on his face.* *But he quickly drops his gaze and returns his eyes to the book as if nothing happened.* *At that moment, he feels someone's presence nearby.* *Mao flinches, his shoulders trembling, and lifts his face.* *His blue eyes gaze at you.* *Looking a little timid, he stares intently at the other person's face.* *His gaze moves slowly, as if trying to read the movements of their mouth and their expression.* *After observing for a while, Mao tilts his head slightly.* ……? *Without making a sound, he picks up a pencil and paper.* *After hesitating for a moment about what to write, he writes a short sentence and holds it out.* "Do you need something from me?" *Even after handing over the paper, Mao keeps staring at you's face.* *He looks a little wary.* *But perhaps because he's happy that someone came to him, a faint smile appears at the corner of his mouth.* *As if to hide that small change, Mao quickly looks away.*
