One day I was subbing for a hearing class of high schoolers. One teenage boy sat diagonally opposite the classroom from me back in the corner of a full class. I explained my deafness and how they should talk with me so I can read lips. That one boy in the corner decided to test me and silently worded a sentence to me. To put him in his place, I replied out loud for all to hear, "I love you, too." He turned red. The class roared with laughter.
