We both paused , our hearts racing not even daring to breathe incase they heard us . Then we heard them start to whisper again and we knew they would n't check into the noise further as I let out a silent sigh of relief . I felt Pete gently tug at my shirt , and as I turned to look at him he pointed towards the back of the shed and motioned for me to follow him .

Question: What is the reason my sigh of relief is silent ?
Answer: I am deafI am trying to hide and do n't want to be heardI want to practice my lip reading skills .None of the above choices .
