When the audience realized he had left the stage leaving everyone in awe and afraid of never seeing him again.
4 years later
Paris, France
A man in his 30s was holding a bottle of vodka in his hand at night in a square sitting on a bench looking at the lights of the Eiffel Tower while he was enjoying the view he saw woman going towards him.
He watched the woman as he saw that she had a violin in the back, she stopped in front of him and gave him a note of 10 euros.
"I'm sorry, it's not much but it's what I have now"
After speaking, she hurried out.
He was amazed for a moment and then started laughing, he knew he was very badly dressed, but he thought at least she would recognize his face by the instrument on his back.
She did not know, but she had given alms to one of the greatest composers of 21st century classical music, Saulo Uruas, the Uruas family has been famous since the fifteenth century when he composed songs for all of the royalty of Europe, since they never lost their glory.
To a legend surrounding this family, the legend says that the family has a curse to be so talented, each generation of the family they become more talented, but in compensation if they reach 31 years without having true love they could never love again nobody.
They say that this curse was made when the patriarch of the family Fernandin Uruas at his 31 years lost his beloved to a nobleman, as at that time he had nothing, could not compete with the nobleman for her love, so he sought ways to try to impress the She and her family.
It was when he had the wonderful idea of doing a piano performance for her since at that time pianists were very respected but the problem was that he was never very talented playing, so one day when he was in a bar on the verge of despair knowing that the love marriage of your life will be after a week from that date, a sulfur-scented man sat at his desk and said,
"I heard you're looking for talent on the piano, I'm sure, boy?"
The man opened his most charismatic smile, but to Fernandin he looked like the devil himself, in the heat of the moment he replied:
"Yes, I look for talent, but who told you that?"
The man replied with his smile again.
"I know things kid, but let's stop wasting time I have a proposal for you."
Fernandin looked suspicious and replied:
"Which proposal?"
"A kid contract, a contract that will give you talent."
"A contract? What a bad joke sir."
"Do you have anything to lose, boy?"
The man said putting the contract on the table
"Just sign a boy, and you'll have the talent you need to win over your loved one"
"How did you know about that?"
"I know things boy."
Maybe alcohol had affected Fernandin's mind, whether or not he had already signed the contract without having read it, the man opened his smile even more and said,
"Good choice boy, good choice"
When the man got up and went to Fernandin's door he stopped him and asked,
"What's your name, sir?"
"Lu..."
When the man was about to respond lightning struck the bar street with a flash, when it all came back the man was gone, Fernandin did not know, but that contract had plagued generations and generations of his family.
-Currently-
Saulo was still sitting on the bench enjoying the view when he sighed and said,
"I have only one more year."
