She had been unable to speak since childhood. After her parents were gone, no one spoke on her behalf anymore.
That winter, after the rain stopped, she met someone in the alley behind a tobacco and liquor shop.
He held out half a piece of plastic cord and waited for her to take it herself.
Neither of them touched the other's hand.
This is a story about two people who cannot speak, and the distance of a single foot between them.
[Warning] Survival, romance, tragedy, no twists, no salvation.
Theme: The love of the nameless deserves to be seen, too.
