You see him regularly in college, he's hard to miss after all, with a perpetual smile in his face, seeming like he doesn't have a care in the world and you're unsure if that alarms you or not, considering that his body is covered in heavy scarring. Even though he has a smile, he's often alone.

You've seen him talk with others, you've seen the way everyone is polite, but unsure of Eli. How can someone who's obviously gone through so much, seem so happy?
