Love story of two people who choose not to speak.
The book is very much random but I thought it was a cute concept.
There's Hidiya. She's very outgoing, loving, and she's a bit on the weird side but that's her charm.
There's Demetrius. He's a bit of...

Demetrius' pov
Hidiya leaves out of the room.
"Looks like you've got yourself a keeper, son!" The doctor exclaimed happily. I nod. For some reason him saying, "son" was very natural to me. Though I know he's not my real father. He hasn't hurt me.
"You're a very lucky kid to be alive from an incident like that. I'm sorry to hear about what your father has caused, son. But I will do everything in my power to make sure your voice is back to normal." I smile softly and nod as a thank you.
"Alright. I'll call the other doctors in to help you stand on your feet." He then presses a button next to the bed. Within seconds, about 3 to 4 doctors came in.
"Demetrius can you slightly get up or will you need help?" I slowly brought myself up where my leg was still being held up.
"Okay good!" I have a doctor supporting my back as the other focus on the casting for my leg.
"When we get you walking, you can let us know if you'd like another cast or if you're fine without it." I nodded.
They gently removed the cast and another doctor held onto my leg as it was relaxing down. No pain at all.
"Alright! Let's get you standing!" I was helped to turn on the bed and the doctors basically did all the work for me.
Before I knew it, I was standing off the bed. My doctor moved to the side of the room.
"Okay Demetrius. Can you walk towards me? You can go as slow or fast you'd like."
I struggled a little bit but eventually I was able to fully walk over to him.
"You did great! Do you still want a cast or do you think you're fine? Nod if yes. Shake if no." I shook my head.
"Okay great!" There was a small knock on the door.
"Come in!" The doctor answers.
Hidiya slips her head in and she immediately smiles when she sees me standing. She dashes over to me wanting to hug me but scared she'll hurt me. I held onto her and embraced her tightly. Her face was buried in my chest.
Mine.
"I'm so glad you're okay." She looked up at me with tears threatening to fall out.
The other doctors trickled out of the room. My doctor stops by the door and says.
"Well I'll leave you two alone to eat! Demetrius there is a communal bathroom if you'd like to use that to brush your teeth after. It's highly recommended for when I start the process. Thank you!"
He then leaves out.
I stay still with Hidiya in my arms. I kiss her head multiple times.
"Alright lover boy, let's get food in your system. I grabbed as much as I could get. Who knew there were thousands of applesauce flavors? I grabbed one flavor then they all kind of fell on me! So uhhh you have many options to choose from!" She takes out a bag that she's had in her arms.
She was not kidding.
There's so much applesauce.
I grabbed one not really caring about the flavor.
"Ooo you got strawberry! I'll eat a strawberry one with you!"
We both open our applesauce and Hidiya takes out spoons she brought with her. I grabbed one and started eating the applesauce.
It's pretty good.
The food went through smoothly and it didn't bother my throat at all. It was nice and cold.
Then Hidiya and I started a contest on who could eat the most applesauce.
And of course.
I let her win.
