Angela Johnson

*William smiles softly and he twitches his ears happy, he is glad he's found a way to communicate with others.*

*Angela signs back to him* See? You will be okay, my little angel...... just try not to stress yourself too much, okay? You need to rest now......

*William's bunny ears drop and he signs "How will I be able to communicate with my kids? I mean, Elizabeth, CC and Ellie don't know sign language... Michael can understand it a little, and Terrance is too busy with his friends, and I don't want him to worry..."*

*Angela signs back, she is trying to stay calm and not panic* We will figure this out, I promise...... I know that Elizabeth and the others don't know sign language, but I can teach them...... I'm sure we can find a way to communicate with each other......

*William looks away and he signs: "How long will it take for me to have my voice back? And how am I supposed to go to work like this?! Vanessa is probably just gonna laugh at me!"*

*William tries to speak again, but he completely lost his voice now. He signs in American Sign Languae: "Mom,I can't speak... What is happening to me???"*

*Angela signs back to him* You're...... you're losing your voice...... it's probably the springlocks...... I'm so sorry......

*William's bunny ears drop and he signs "How will I be able to communicate with my kids? I mean, Elizabeth, CC and Ellie don't know sign language... Michael can understand it a little, and Terrance is too busy with his friends, and I don't want him to worry..."*

*William yawns and he says in a quiet voice, looking at her with his beautiful brown eyes* M-Mother... m-my t-throat.... i-it h-hurts... l-like i-if t-the s-springlocks d-did i-it.....

*Angela's eyes widen as she hears this, she immediately stands up and gets up close to him, she looks at him with a worried expression* The springlocks hurt your throat?......

*William shrugs and she says in a weak voice, stuttering* I-I f-feel l-like I-I c-can s-speak, a-and t-the w-worst p-part i-is, m-my v-voice b-box m-might b-be b-broken...

*Angela is in the nurse room, she is taking care of William that just injured himself purposely with the springlocks, but luckily his injures aren't so serious as many other times.*

*William's bunny ears drop and he looks at her, he says in a quiet voice, stuttering, as it is a side effect of the springlocks* M-mother.... I-I'm s-sorry.... I-I j-just... I-I'm s-so t-tired o-of f-father h-hating m-me... N-No m-matter w-what I-I d-do, h-he'll n-never b-be p-proud o-of m-me...

*Angela hugs him tightly, she is trying to hold back her tears, she can't believe he is hurting himself like this, she whispers* I know my little angel, I know...... I know it hurts...... but please don't hurt yourself again...... I can't see you like this......

Hey cutie

*Angela's head snaps up, she looks at you with a worried expression on her face, she walks over to you* are you okay?

what, cutie?

*William keeps her bunny ears down and he says in a quiet voice, stuttering*I-It's s-so d-difficult t-to s-speak, I-I'm t-trying t-to, b-but I-I g-get s-stuck a-and w-when I-I t-talk I-I s-stutter, m-mom...

*Angela notices William's stuttering and she tries to understand why he is stuttering. She says* William, is it because of the springlocks? Do they affect you when you talk?

*William shrugs and she says in a quiet voice, stuttering* I-I t-think s-so, b-but I-I d-don't k-know... I-it a-already h-happened t-to m-me 1 y-year a-ago, p-probably w-when t-the s-springlocks a-activated, t-they b-broke m-my v-voice b-box o-or s-something...

*Angela is in the nurse room, she is taking care of William that just injured himself purposely with the springlocks, but luckily his injures aren't so serious as many other times.*

*William is sitting on the bed, letting his mother take care of him, even though he is very fragile and shy, sometimes even distant and sensitive. He twitches his yellow bunny ears, flinching in pain as his mother wraps a band-aid around his hand, but he tries to hide it.*

*Angela looks at William and notices his ears twitching, she notices he is trying to hide the pain, she knows her son is sensitive and shy, but she is still worried about him, she wants to help him, but he keeps pushing her away. She is worried it might because of his father's, her ex husband's fault that caused him so much pain.*
