I think once the initial attraction dimmed down they started feeling awkward with each other and regretting letting someone they had more in common with get away. I could be wrong but that does happen quite a bit - staying with someone out of a notion that because things started out so great that the entire relationship from then on will be great as well, but then time makes things more apparent and you realize happy beginnings don't always lead to happy endings.

Amazing actors and storyline. To portray the nobility and dignity of two unique human beings forming a fledgling relationship despite the differences in communication styles, culture, and gender was fantastic. It reminds me of my wife and me. She is Chamoru from the island of Guam. Born and raised with certain cultural values, expectations and behaviors. I am from Chicago of mixed blood (black and white) who grew up with one foot on the streets and the other in education. I joined the military, saw the world, went to war, and came across a beautiful island where my path crossed with an exotic woman who took a chance and risk with an "outsider". We've had our challenges and misunderstandings through the years. However, she just told me over our morning coffee how much she feels she has grown into herself and in love with me. We've been married now over 10 years and have 5 sons together. Come what may, I look toward eternity with my island soulmate. I look forward to seeing more from Michael Aloyan, T.J. Carpio (you are such a wonderful actress!), and Shvan Aladdin (great actor!).

This is indeed a very heart touching story . Love is independent of religion , caste or any sort of physical challenges and is so wonderfully depicted in here . Thanks to Omeleto for bringing such wonderful short movies !!

Love isn't just about that strong powerful initial emotion. True love is telling your self that you WILL be committed to LOVING this person even when the spark feels low, and even when you see a spark in someone else. The feeling is a crush/infatuation/liking. The commitment is Love.

@@AnoNymous-ph4cd I don’t understand either.

My mother was deaf due to an accident but had surgery to restore hearing in one ear. My aunt married a man deaf from birth and years later set up a deaf services center that trained interpreters for three Counties. She had to stop signing constantly as it was hard on her hands. I always looked up to her and those like her that run Deaf schools that get kids ready to mainstream into regular schools.

I married my high school sweetheart after I joined the Marines. I had been chasing her for 3 years, and finally caught her. when I was almost finished with my 4 years, Iraq invaded Kuwait, and I went to the Middle East. While I was there she was partying and sleeping around, and spent all of the money I earned. I returned on my birthday by chance and found out what she was doing. When the 2nd guy came into the picture, I had a flashback, thinking that she was going to ditch the 1st guy for someone who could "sign" even though she had not given any clues she was dishonest. It just goes to show that even after almost 30 years, being "wronged" jades your expectations and destroys your trust in others.

Love this short movie! It shows that love, true connexion, happen naturally, patience is so important. I like that when the focus was on her, we didn't hear anything, like that we understand a little bit what it means to be deaf. Great work! Bravo to the team! 😊

They played all day. He could've at least offered her a drink or snack when they finally got into the apt. They both passed up thirst quenching opportunities to hang out together. He's got a faucet right there and he's got at least 1 cup.

Lovely! I was doubting at first cause this is an overly used theme and I have seen many of such shorts and after a while they're all the same and not that emotional anymore. But I love the twist you gave it here with the third persons popping up. Not sure about the ending though, with this long scene of them being nervous on the couch.

I'm glad someone talks about the signification of the ending part, but I think this is more ambiguous than you say and there is different understanding possible. Firstly yours: "the akwardness when the magic is gone", another based on some kind of "where to really start this relationship? there are so many thing to say / to do", or the more prosaïc one: "Out of reticence about telling her / him when it's time to get more 'physical'' " when paradoxaly other people usually doesn't need words. Anybody to discuss all these hypothesis or others?

@@alexandreruso I do believe it is up to the viewer to discern the course of action these two may take. Initially their romance began with such momentum, however when the man went to go find the key, she first had the obstacle of choosing her current date, or going with someone who already understands her. The man also ran into someone similarly, and although both were faced with this temptation, they chose to continue on with each other. I personally believe although the ending looked inconclusive, throughout the film they made each other vulnerable to each other. Such as the man putting he is illegal as a secret, or when the women shared her headphone with him. In that respect, I believe if this were to continue, they would continue to grow with each other. As they say, nothing worth having should be easy.

Their hearts are talking to each other.💕

I almost lost faith in man kind,they both weren't scared of different. 👍💜

Ah I finally get the end. Why not the easy and so called perfect one ? Who will wait for you and beside you in the difficult times, requiring integrity and commitment,repecting your differnces and not merely sympathy for each other. They are indeed a perfect couple not by the facts but by definition of true and meaningful relationship .

If you can learn a new language in a week (some people can), then you probably can learn a sign language in a week.
