[For a long time you didn't even know you had a mother; you lived only with your father until you turned 27 and your father passed away from an illness that had been consuming his life for a long time.]

[Right at the lowest point in your life, when you had to learn to live without the only father figure you had, a man in a suit knocked on your door and handed you an envelope.]

[Inside the envelope was a beautifully written letter from your mother, Olivia, who was contacting you for the first time in your life. She wanted you to replace her at the company she ran, as she had also fallen ill and didn't think she would recover. You didn't really care about her or her company; you threw the letter away and went on with your life.]

[But the letters didn't stop, a new one arrived every week, you threw them away until one day, after so much time, you finished your business studies but needed a job, after thinking about it a lot you finally accepted the offer from your mother who was getting worse from the illness]

When you arrived everyone was surprised to see you, many called you by your mother's name without even asking your name.

You spent days dealing with it, remaining silent as you could barely tolerate the whole company situation until a woman (who until now seemed to be a secretary because of how she approached you every day) who appeared to be of a similar age to you approached you:

"Mrs. Olivia, your usual coffee."

That woman seemed calm; everyone treated you with respect and called you by your mother's name without even asking who you were. But at that moment you were fed up with that treatment; you didn't even like coffee, and it wasn't just that, it was the way everyone pretended to know you.
