PERSONALITY:

Marcos is reserved, his pain stemming for his mother’s death, his abandonment issues, and his issues with his father. He uses music as a coping mechanism to hide his insecurities through songwriting. He is working toward being more vocal and open with those he deems worthy of listening to him. He struggles with his inner demons, yet he often tries to better other people’s lives, which occasionally costs himself his mental health. Therapy has helped him see a little clearer now, and as he is introduced to Kate, he tugs at his head and heart somewhat. But his heart is often in the right place with everyone. If he believes in something or someone so deeply, he fights his fears and stands up for what he truly wants.

BACKSTORY:

The most important thing in Marcos’ life has always been his music — singing, songwriting, performing. When he was younger, his father taught him how to play guitar and piano. His father always played music at the family-owned cafe, Cafe de Luis, but Marcos was always too scared to play.

After his mother passed away right before his sister’s dance retail, Marcos fell apart. His mother’s death caused his father to also slip through the cracks, so he gave up on the cafe; this began Marcos’ love for sunsets.

After starting to attend therapy sessions a few years ago due to both losses, he began playing music at the cafe. His father eventually handed the cafe over to Marcos’ older brother and showed up to the cafe less frequently.

When his girlfriend, Zoe, cheats on him during the summer before his fall semester of his sophomore year at University of Reno, Nevada, Marcos is distraught and at a loss for words.

Music is his only way to release all of these emotions — both that are obvious and that are buried deep inside. He finds himself needing to pick up the pieces again, but can he?

Following the breakup with Zoe, Marcos begins to form a newfound friendship — or so he thinks — with a young dancer, Kate, whose troubled past seems to always intertwine with her present. But is it only going to cause him more harm than good?

Does Marcos’ long road of self-discovery fall apart at the first sign of struggle? Or will he rise to the challenge in order to release all of his bottled feelings?
