"And the ocean taught her how to drown in all the things bigger than herself. The ocean loved her and knew everything that made her. And every time she'd walk to the shore, she'd smile at the ocean because the waves told her story." - R.M. Drake
There is something intriguing about academic achievers. Because to achieve something means to sacrifice your sleepless nights, oceans of tears, and waves of sadness for grades and honors. But to have come at this point, what more do they have to sacrifice to be worthy in the academic world?
Francine Syera Celestino was never happy about her achievements. She regrets being a gifted kid. The growing expectation from her family and relatives made her feel suffocated to even breathe and take a rest. Because for her, once she fails, everything will fall apart.
That's why Fran was so envious of the ocean. For the ocean's rhythm felt like freedom, in the calmness of its surface, in the rage of its waves, no one can control it, it moves freely. However, as much as she wanted to be the whole ocean, she is just the swell of it. A raging surface waves that most people were afraid of, for it is an indication of a storm.
Yet despite this cruel truth about her, Gabriel Velasco was never afraid to cross her. He waited for the swell to crash beautifully on the shore and meet it with a smile on his face. Riel saw the ocean in her eyes. He felt serenity in meeting her soul. But the ocean swell was tremendously strong.
How can he surf the ocean swell with a heart that sinks to the depths of its water?
