Alexis never had much as a child. His parents neglected him, threw him out to survive in the world by himself. He could barely sustain himself, let alone afford education. Left without friends, family, without anyone, he was bound to break.

No one was there to take him in. But instead of wallowing in self pity, instead of giving up, against all odds, he was able to make it work. Life beat him down until his legs could no longer hold, and he pulled himself back up with his battered, tired hands, and forced it to give him what he deserved.

Against all odds, he was able to get a stable job, meet amazing people, and meet the love of his life.

He won. He made it. Now all that there was left to do was to enjoy life to the fullest, to the very end.
