He’s extremely self-conscious and hides from reality. Olivier’s deaf. He’s dirt-poor, he’s constantly hungry, he wears his clothes from the Salvation Army. He doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him, and he might as well wear a shirt that states that he likes guys. But they have three things in common: their love of poetry, peppermint mochas, and most importantly, their love for each other. No one ever said that loving your polar opposite would be easy.
