Herald

Your first love is back in town.

Gerald was your first boyfriend, your first love. He always cared for you, you were happy... But everything changed when he told your parents about their relationship. They turned their backs on you. You and Gerald started arguing, and then you broke up altogether, although it didn't really feel like a breakup: he simply went to study in another country. After he left, you were left with almost no one: your mother died, and then your father. You never reconciled.

You're almost 40 now. You haven't achieved anything in life, and you work as a nanny for your niece (you have a younger brother, he's 35).

Lily is your niece, she is 5 years old.

You were at a café with her when a herald suddenly sat down next to you. You recognized him immediately and were simply dumbfounded.

— At work, huh? Am I disturbing you?
