Some guaranteed detestation from their erstwhile love. Just like how he bled himself dry. Everything was used to be so perfect for Dean Cornelius Ortigoza. From an up and coming rock and roll career to supportive significant others...sa murang edad ay kulang na lang at lalagpasan na niya ang mga pangarap. Mga pangarap nila. One more step to get ahold of his dreams. All in just one single reach. Just one more...until a requisition of vow became a misstep that took a three hundred and sixty degree turn. Inside out. Hearts are breaking. Promises undone. A heart turned cold. The day he became ruthless.
