This is the UNEDITED, ORIGINAL version of Silently Falling. If you wish to find the edited version, please go to my profile and you will find it there :) The original was edited starting August 2020. - - - "Sunshine, what guy do you know has a weird fetish with sign language?" She's the aftermath of a high school party nightmare. Tragedy robbed her of her innocence and stole her voice before she had the chance to speak out. The court called her a liar, and the guilty was set free. Now memories plague her mind and trap her in solitude. She was forced to learn sign language, struggling to find a way to voice her silence. He's the definition of the boy she tried to stay away from. The epitome of harsh rumors and hopeless fantasies. The source of lies and blame. He's analyzed, misunderstood, and utterly mysterious. And he may be the one to find her voice. When they meet, she gets accustomed to his arrogance and he gets accustomed to her silence. An essay is what brings them together, but what happens when he starts asking too many questions? Will her past continue to drag her down, or will he save her?

Signing Love (#Wattys 2018)
Preview: I looked up, and smiled at Cole. I knew what has happened to me. I just didn't want to show too much of it. Ever since I started to know him, I was really happy. Even though I didn't have too many friends, I felt like I had the world supporting me. That feeling, is so hard to explain. "Are you ready for the science project tomorrow, Samantha?" He asked me. 'I told you, it's Sami. And yes, I'm ready.' I wrote on a piece of paper. I taught him a little sign language, but he only knows the basics. Like greetings. 'I guess this is where we part ways.' He nodded in agreement "Well, see you tomorrow." He waved as I started walking away from him. Right then, I put my middle and ring finger down, and kept my pinky finger, index finger, and my thumb up, I showed him my hand gesture, palm facing away from my face. He gave me a confused look, and I laughed at it. I turned around to walk away. Meaning? I love you. Summary: Samantha (Sami) Connor has been through a lot. She has lost her mother at a young age, and has also been raped. She has trust issues, and she hasn't said a word since she was five years old. But Cole Turner is the exact opposite.
