A Penny For Your Thoughts

Because of often being left out as well as alone while growing up deaf, I developed a habit of thinking too much. Sometimes my face expressions would indicate that I am thinking.

After our honeymoon, my husband was getting to know me better and vice versa. Like many newlyweds, we started to notice each other's habits.

One afternoon, riding in my husband's car in India, my husband noticed I was thinking about something judging from my expressions.

"Thinking out loud, as usual, aren't you?", he teased me.

"Becoming deafer, aren't you, from my loud thinking?", I encountered.
