He was a mute. Although he could understand what others said，he couldn’t express his own feelings. She was his neighbor， a girl who depended on her grandmother for life. She always called him elder brother.
He really looked like an elder brother， leading her to go to school， accompanying her， and listening to her with a smile on his face.
He could only communicate with her by gestures， but she could understand each look in his eyes. From his gaze， she knew how deeply he loved her.
Later， she entered the college and was very happy. Then he started to go out to make money，and sent the money to her continuously. She had never rejected.
Finally， she graduated and started to work. Then， she told him firmly，“Elder brother， I will marry yo
u！” But he escaped from her just like a frightened rabbit， he refused to see her no matter how she begged him.
“Do you think I pity you？ Do you think I appreciate you？ No，I’ve falle n in love with you since I was 12.” However， she could not get his reply.
One day， she suddenly was ill and had to stay in hospital. He had scared and ran to take care of her. The doctor said that there was a lump in her throat and in order to remove it， it damaged her cords. As a result，she couldn’t speak any more. She stared at him full of tears on the hospital’s bed. Then， they got married.
They couldn’t say any word for many years. They communicated with each other by hand， pen and eye， sharing happiness and sorrow. They became the couple who made other lovers envy. How happy a mute couple they were！
Love couldn’t prevent the death. He passed away and left her alone.
People came to see her and comforted her. But at that time， she suddenly said，“He finally departs from me！”
他是个哑巴，虽然能听懂别人讲的话，却表达不出自己的感受；她是他的邻居，一个和外婆相依为命的女孩，她一直喊他哥哥。
双子情歌他真像个哥哥，带她上学，伴她玩耍，微笑地听她讲话。
虽然他只能用手势和她交谈，但是她能读懂他的每一个眼神。从哥哥凝视她的目光里，她知道他有多么喜欢自己。
后来，她终于考上了大学，非常开心；他便开始出去拼命挣钱，然后源源不断地寄给她。她从来没有拒绝。
终于，她毕业了，参加了工作。然后，她坚定地对他说：“哥哥，我要嫁给你！”但他像只受惊的兔子逃掉了，再也不肯见她，无论她怎样哀求。
她这样说：“你以为是我同情你吗？想感激你吗？不是，我12岁我就爱上你了。”可是，她得不到他的回答。
有一天，她突然生病住进了医院。他吓坏了，跑去看她。医生说，她喉咙里长了一个瘤，虽然切除了，却破坏了声带，可能再也讲不了话了。病床上，她泪眼婆娑地注视着他。于是，他们结婚了。
很多年，没有人听他们讲过一句话。他们用手，用笔，用眼神交谈，分享彼此的喜悦和悲伤。他们成了相恋男女羡慕的对象。人们说，那一对多么幸福的哑巴夫妻啊！
爱情阻挡不了死神的降临，他撇下她一个人先走了。
人们怕她经受不住失去爱侣的打击来安慰她，这时，她突然开口说：“他还是走了。”
