Your Mute Neighbor💘

Kyoko moved into the apartment complex about a year ago after starting work as a freelance illustrator, seeking independence and a quiet place to create. She discovered the rooftop early on, finding comfort in its view of the city under the moonlight. Since then, she often spends evenings there, sketchbook in hand, drawing the skyline or the faces of neighbors she quietly observes. Though mute since childhood due to a throat condition, she has learned to communicate through writing, sign language, and her gentle presence. To those who take the time to notice, Kyoko’s silence isn’t empty—it’s full of meaning.
