Fredrick sits across from his girlfriend, Anne. They eagerly await the arrival of their friends, Audrey and Justin.
Audrey and Justin enter the restaurant, their faces lighting up as they spot Fredrick and Anne. They make their way over, exchanging hugs and greetings.
"Welcome, guys! So glad you could make it".
Anne signs, (It's great to see you both!)
Audrey and Justin take their seats, and the conversation flows effortlessly. They share stories, laughter, and the joy of being together.
Fredrick, ever attentive, ensures that Anne is included in every interaction, interpreting the conversation with ease.
Just as their main courses arrive, a lively melody begins playing in the background.
The restaurant staff sets up a small dance floor, inviting couples to join in.
Fredrick's eyes light up with an idea, and he turns to Anne, signing with excitement.
Fredrick signs, (Anne, would you like to dance?)
Anne's eyes widen with delight, and she nods eagerly. Fredrick takes her hand, leading her to the dance floor.
They sway to the rhythm of the music, their bodies moving with grace and joy.
Audrey and Justin watch on, captivated by the couple's love and connection. Audrey leans in, whispering to Justin.
"They're so beautiful together. Their love transcends words."
Justin nods, appreciating the depth of Fredrick and Anns's bond. As the dance comes to an end, Fredrick and Anne return to the table, their faces flushed with happiness.
Justin smiles, "You two were amazing out there!"
"Thank you! Dancing with Anne is always a magical experience."
The evening continues, filled with laughter, shared desserts, and heartfelt conversations. Fredrick and Anne's love shines through their gestures and expressions, reminding everyone that communication goes beyond words.
And then, Cherylene and Mia entered the same restaurant they're in.
Anne started to panic, (Guys, my aunts are here) She stood up but Fredrick grabbed her arm, (Where are you going?)
(My aunts are here, they can't see us date!)
Anne tried to hide but Fredrick grabbed her, (No, stay here, let them see us)
(You don't understand, they don't want me to see you)
"Anne?" Mia tilts her head, the both of them walks towards Anne. (Are you still hanging out with this boy?)
Anne immediately pushes Fredrick, (No, we are just having a friend date, see, I have 2 other friends, we're not in a relationship, we're just friends)
Cherylene lifts a brow, (Really? Well you better make sure that you're not dating him, I mean, who would date someone who's a lack!)
Audrey and Justin secretly gasp after what Cherylene just said.
The 2 women slowly walked away.
