Mitch
Today's the day.
Today is the day that will change my life forever.
I run down to the kitchen.
Wow, excited?
Yes.
My mom smiles and grabs her keys. Let's go get breakfast.
I nod and grab my jacket.
We go out to the car and start driving.
I text Scott.
Mitchie: I'm not coming to school today. Come to my house later.
I get a text back a few minutes later.
Scottie: okay :( are you okay?
Mitchie: just going to the doctor 😉
Scottie: omg!! Okay, I'll be over later
I smile and put my phone away.
We pull into the Chick Fil A drive-thru.
I sign the number that I want to my mom.
Soon I'll be able to talk at drive-thru's.
We get our food and start the drive to the doctor.
We get to the doctor and I wait anxiously in the waiting room.
After a few minutes we're led into a room with a bunch of medical instruments.
My mom has the biggest smile on her face.
We wait a few minutes for the doctor and he finally walks in.
Hello! How are we today?
Excited.
Well, let's get started.
**
I constantly jiggle my leg as I wait for the clock to strike 2:55.
The teacher gets our attention.
"Our annual Singing Supper will be February 25th. The theme this year will be holidays. If you can't find a holiday, pick a song and I will help you match it to a holiday. I'm passing out applications now."
I take two applications just in case I lose one of them, which is very possible.
When we're dismissed, I run outside and wait for my mom to pick me up.
I jump in the car. "Can we go see Mitch?"
She laughs. "No, "Hi, mom"?"
"Hi, mom. Can we go see Mitch?"
"Sure, Nel told me that he just got home."
I check my messages to see that he had messaged me earlier.
Mitchie: come over after school!!!
We get to Mitch's house and I run inside.
I bust through his front door and see him sitting on the couch.
He turns his head towards me.
"Mitch?"
**
"Mitch?"
My eyes widen as I... hear my mom's voice?
I turn my head to see her with tears in her eyes.
"Muh- Ma- Mom...?"
She bursts into tears and wraps me in a hug.
I start crying into her shoulder.
After our moment we sit back down.
"Can you hear alright? I'm going to adjust some things..."
He asks me a bunch of questions before we leave.
I hold my mom's hand as we go outside.
I'm a little scared of the sounds and stuff, but I guess I'll get used to it.
My mom starts the car and I jump at the sound of the radio.
Music?
My mom nods. "This is music. Good job."
I smile as I listen to the wonderful noise coming out of the radio.
I wonder if Scott likes music.
We get home and I sit on the couch, trying to take everything in.
I know I don't hear the same as normal people, but I'm sure it's close.
The door suddenly busts open. "Mitch?"
I turn my head towards him.
Connie walks in behind him and shuts the door.
Scott sits beside me.
A huge smile spreads across my face. "He- hello, S...Scott...?"
He hugs me tightly.
"Hello, Mitch."
We stay there for a second until he pulls away.
"Do you know a lot of words?" Scott asks.
I nod, "I can r- read lips." I say slowly.
Talking is weird.
"I'll help you learn."
"Th- thank... you...?"
"Good job!"
Dinner tonight with Scott? My mom asks.
"Yes."
We go up into my room to hang out until dinner.
Choir? I sign.
Scott nods.
Teach me to sing.
