Lin Xiaoman, a girl with aphasia, hides her feelings behind sign language and written words. Chen Mo, her photographer neighbor, conceals his affection through quiet gestures—repairing her late mother’s old camera, fending off match-making relatives, even leaving a hallway light on for her when she works late. Their love is like sugar melting in warm water: sweet yet unspoken. Xiaoman fears her “inability to speak” will be a burden; Chen Mo worries confessing will ruin their unspoken understanding. Until the night before Xiaoman’s overseas treatment, she finds Chen Mo’s photography notebook. On the last page is a silhouette of her feeding cats, with a note: “My lens holds all the unsaid ‘I want to be with you.’” Then the doorbell rings. Outside, Chen Mo clutches a sign language textbook, his nose red from the cold: “I’ve been learning sign language for three months. From now on… we can take a lifetime to say everything slowly.”
