Daphne's Point of View

Daphne woke up in her room in the Kennish household, and she smiled just a little. It was quiet, because Daphne didn't have her hearing aid in. Daphne went deaf when she was a little girl because of meningitis. With the help of her hearing aids she can hear slightly, but she is extremelly good about reading lips. That is the main way that Daphne can understand what other people are saying, as long as they stay at a reasonable pace.

Daphne got dressed and then walked downstairs into the kitchen to see her biological mother, Kathryn. Kathryn and Daphne look a lot alike, and it's amazing that they didn't figure out that Bay and Daphne had been switched before they did.

"Do you want breakfast?" Kathryn said, and she also signed to make sure that Daphne understood. Everyone always signed around Daphne because they knew that it was the best way for Daphne to communicate.

Daphne smiled a big smile and then used the sign for yes. Daphne had been pretty upset after running into Jeff at a local grocery store the other day. Ever since then Daphne had been thinking about Jeff.

Jeff Reycraft was once Daphne's love interest, and boss. Jeff knew that what they were doing was wrong, not only because she was his employee, but also because of their age difference. However; Jeff couldn't help himself, and neither could Daphne.

Daphne got out of the chair and went to the stove, planning on helping Kathryn. Daphne was a great cook, and Kathryn knew that. Daphne smiled and started to cook some eggs and toast. She didn't want a very big breakfast.

Once breakfast was done cooking, Daphne hugged Kathryn and then took her plate of food up to her room. She placed the plate on her night stand and climbed back into bed. As soon as she climbed into bed Bay walked into her room.

Daphne didn't realize that Bay was in there, so she didn't realize that Bay was talking until Bay poked her arm. Daphne then looked up at Bay and smiled softly.

"Hey." Daphne said as she motioned for Bay to sit on the bed with her.

Bay sat on the edge of the bed and then looked at Daphne. "So I was wondering, what would you do if Ty... proposed?"

Daphne was shocked at what Bay had just said. "Wait, wait, wait! Did Ty propose?"

"No, well not yet. He's just been talking about marriage and the future a lot lately. He said he won't go back into the army because of his plans that are going to happen soon. I don't know what that means." Bay said with a slight smile.

Daphne squealed and then hugged Bay. "Whatever you do, just don't push it. Let him do it when he's ready."

Bay smiled at Daphne and then walked out of the room. Daphne picked up her plate and sat it in her lap. With a small smile on her face, Daphne started to eat.
