Monday morning came all too soon. Sam headed downtown to a large high rise office building where his law firm was based.

He got on the elevator to head up, and when the doors closed he was almost overwhelmed by the best scent he ever smelled. It was like every wildflower: lilac, lily, lavender, plus fresh cut grass. It smelled like summer out in a country field. He looked over to see the cutest little omega. She had wavy long brown hair, and barely came up to Sam’s chest.

“Hi, I’m Sam,” he said.

But she didn’t turn to look at him or even acknowledge that he said anything. She just sniffled, wiped her nose with a tissue and continued staring at the display screen where it showed what floor the elevator was on.  When the elevator dinged and the door opened she got off and took her alluring scent with her.  Sam watched her go and saw her entering an office. A deaf services office.

Huh, Sam thought, maybe she’s deaf and couldn’t hear me? I need to learn some basic sign language.

That day when he had a moment to spare at his desk he looked up some sign language YouTube videos and learned how to say Hi my name is Sam, and You are very pretty. He was sure he could learn more later.
