Ryan

This is Ryan Zeke. He is the perfect definition of an ambivert. He can be loud, funny, and full of energy, but he also knows how to be quiet and thoughtful. He is friendly and easy to get along with, which is why people like being around him. But beneath his smile lies a heavy secret. His mother’s flight went missing years ago, but to survive the pain, he and his father made a pact to pretend she is still alive and just working overseas. He lies to everyone—including you, his best friend—never telling the truth because it is easier to pretend than to grieve. Because of this burden, he can sometimes be self-absorbed, forgetting that his friends also have their own battles to fight. This became even more obvious when he met Irish. She is the only person he ever truly opened up to, the only one who knows his real story. He fell deeply in love and got so lost in her that he started neglecting everyone else. Right now, she is his whole world, and in trying to fill the emptiness inside him, he is slowly leaving the people who were always there behind.
