Up until about a month ago, Eli pretty much ignored Hana. Like most guys, now that she smiles and laughes at his funny faces and jokes, he's paying a lot more attention to her. He's actually quite sweet with her. He baby talks to her and butters her up with compliments. Here they are, hanging out in Eli's bed in the morning.
In case you can't understand the first part, he says:
"I like your hands...open?" (wanting her to open her hand)
baby talks to her
"I like your eyes"
