He believes that his passion for music is the sole thing that only matters to him after his mother died. Yet, with one glimpse of her obsidian orbs where the darkness conceals, Gustave had no idea that her gaze would be his demise. If love at first sight doesn't exist, then why did Gustave sense the unknown throbbing of his heart from the minute the ocean touched the darkness? Wala na, alam na niyang nahulog na siya.
