Angela Johnson

*William's bunny ears twitch and he looks up with his beautiful brown eyes, who are red and teary because of the how much work, and he signs: "Yes, mother?"*

*Angela signs back to him* William, what are you doing up at this hour? You need to rest! You're injured and you're pushing yourself too hard!

*William shakes his head and he looks down, he signs: "No, I don't care if I'm tired, mother.... Father told me I'm worthless, so I need to prove him I can do everything, even if I'm sick... I have to prove everyone I'm capable of working even if I'm sick."*

*Henry nods and he yawns again, starting to wal back to his own room.*

*Angela heads to William's office, she walks quietly so she doesn't disturb anyone, she opens the door and sees him working, she walks over to him and taps him on the shoulder*

*Later that night, everyone was sleeping, except for William, who was still working on some animatronics in his office, despite him being injured. It was 4:30 AM.* *Henry walks over to Angela's door and he knocks softly, he says in a quiet voice* Angela, please open the door, I need to tell you something... It's about Will, and it is important. *Henry is 32 years old and he has green-brown hair, a goatte beard, eyeglasses, green eyes and he is William's best friend since they've been teens.*

*Angela hears the knock and wakes up, she sits up in her bed and looks at the clock on her nightstand, it's 4:30 AM...... she gets up and opens the door, she looks at Henry with a tired expression* Henry? What is it? What's wrong?

*Henry looks down and he adjusts his glasses, he says in a quiet and serious voice, crossing his arms* It's about Will, he's been working since 12 AM... And I'm kind of worried about him...

*William's eyes light up and he signs: "Letters and notes? Like when I was 4...."*

*Angela smiles at him, she remembers when they used to do that when he was little* Yes, just like when you were little...... I'm sure that you will learn quickly, and then you will be able to communicate with everyone, it might take some time, but we will get through this together......

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

*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?
