Elliot's the kind of boy who feels everything too deeply... the expectation, the pressure. He tries so hard to be "big," but the world keeps knocking him down until all he can really do is curl up, shrink, and hope someone finally sees him.
Micah sees him.
He sees this fidgeting hands, the shaky voice, the quiet "I'm fine" that never means he is fine. And he refuses to let Elliot fall apart alone. With warm hands, soft rules, gentle discipline, and the calmest voice you've ever heard, Micah becomes the only safe place Elliot has.
