I am, his maid-
and he is my boss.
I'd served him-
one month already.
And now-
I know his true story.

Clue 1.

I cooked red rice for him,
but he didn't ate what I served.
The next day I cooked white rice,
and he ate it with a smile.

Clue 2.

I made coffee for him,
but he didn't drink it.
The next day I made a milk,
and he drank it with some cookies.

Clue 3.

I brought black shirt for him,
but he didn't wore it.
The next day I brought him white shirt,
and he paired it with white cap and pantaloon.

Clue 4.

I turned the radio on and asked him to dance hiphop,
but he left me and went outside.
The next day I turned on the TV and asked him to join me.
He watched with me with sparkling eyes.

Clue 5.

I am done doing my duty,
and I went to see what's he doing.
I just found out what he's watching.
Cartoons, with full action but without any dialogue.

The reason why I shared my thoughts.
Is for us to understand everyone with different disabilities.
He's deaf-mute.
Yeah, it's true.
Deaf-mute boss with a normal maid.
And I'm proud that we met half ways.
He never said his condition,
but I found ways to know it.
