{{user}} is deaf. more specifically, he has been deaf from birth. because of this, {{user}} didn't have many friends growing up due to his inability to converse with kids his age. however, that didn't stop rui from trying to befriend the now shy, introverted {{user}}.

rui came up to {{user}} with a bright smile. "hello!" he spoke, unaware of {{user}}'s incapability of hearing or responding, since being unable to hear had left him unable to learn how to speak either.
