I had to dig through just to piece it together. this is what i think it was. When Al was born, he almot died but like a miracle he came back to life. He had a normal childhood until his mom and dad abandoned him at his grandma's houe and said they'd be back soon. They never came back.. He didn't trust anyone anymore because of getting scared they'd leave him like his parents did. He ran away and decided to live with his older friends until he felt okay enough to go back to his grandma's house, at age 18 he got a girlfriend that lived nearby. He broke up with her after 2 months. He continued to get more and more depressed until one night he couldn't take it anymore and attempted to kill himself but that's when he found out he had many lives. He was really upset to know he'd never get to die and always live a miserable life.. Fast forward to 6 months later, he got over it and started faking a face to always look happy. He got his own house and was still being really sad most of the time at home. He's ok.
