"Good. That's my natural state," Elias joked as he ran his fingers through his dark hair, drawing a few strands back from his forehead only for them to fall back.
"Do you see yourself making a difference after college?" Alyssa asked him. It was kind of a weighted question, but she wondered what he saw when he thought ahead. When she graduated, she wanted to impact a lot of people in a positive way.
Elias gave her a surprised look before laughing in a nervous manner.
"Oh, man. That's heavy," he said. "Hm. I hope to. I really do."
Alyssa smiled and nodded. Even if he didn't think so, it was a good answer. Hope was good. Hope was strong. As long as they had that, they had a good shot at their goals.
"I hope your business pans out," Alyssa told him. She didn't know what he would be involved in, but she had a feeling it would be something great. He seemed to have the charm and drive to successfully run a business. What he learned here at college would definitely help too.
