Music is a Whole Lot Better Than Unbearable Silence and Unwanted Noise

"When you're a high school student, it's one thing, being a part of a cover band, that's another thing, but meeting a new transfer student which leads to something very life changing, that is definitely a whole different thing."

"Here in Sonorous, listening to or playing music is a whole lot better than unbearable silence and unwanted noise, remember that."
-Garth Samuel Davidson

Garth Davidson was typically known as the guy with headphones at school by almost every student he came across or passed by, or called by his middle name, Samuel, Sammy, or Sam, by his friends/band mates; he would put his headphones on and play music that caught his interest, mostly songs by Metallica, thanks to his cover band, Sonorous. He'd listen to music whenever he no longer stood the silence, when he hears noise he couldn't stand, or when it's lunchtime; which is quiet, despite being with his friends. One day, his English and Music class got a transfer student who sat beside him in English and is part of the orchestra section, and his world was no longer as silent when he found out a something about himself that he had forgotten that his parents kept a secret at all costs for the sake of his safety. Would he accept this secret and the heart the new student offers him, or would they be part of what he dubs as unwanted noise?
