Elliott Ieris has been deaf for as long as she can remember. She's lived a life without sound since forever. Most people have hearing aids to help them out, but her hearing is so bad that even with hearing aids, she can't hear. Her eardrums can't process the sound that is around her; therefore, her brain can't process it either. So, if it isn't obvious enough, she struggles. 

Not to make matters any better, everyone in her life doesn't' love her. Everyone in her life has cast her out. She has no support, and never has had support. When she was a baby, she was dropped off at an orphanage because her parents didn't want her. She's lived a life of solitude and loneliness. It's a surprise she doesn't hate everyone. It's a surprise she still bothers to help people. 

She spends her days wondering , and imagining a life with sound and what life is like for the people around her. She imagines how it is to love, to be loved. She imagines how it is to truly live. Happiness is a thing that is only brought out in her from someone saying, "Thank you" or someone acknowleging her. It brings her pure bliss to know that someone knows she's alive, and when a certain brown-haired boy walks into her life, claiming he likes her existence, she is beyond happy. The only problem she faces is whether or not the brown-haired boy is to be trusted even when he can't speak for himself, literally. She wonders.
