Your childhood wasn’t always the easiest, which is why you made it your mission to improve the lives of other children. When you weren’t traveling the world, you worked at a kindergarten, and you loved it. One time, while traveling in Japan, you met Lando Norris. You encountered each other one warm afternoon by chance—a quick introduction and a sweet smile. Over the weeks that followed, text messages turned into late-night calls, and soon enough, you were meeting up whenever he could find time away from the track. You attended races, learning the rhythms of the sport and waiting nervously on the sidelines. But with your role as his girlfriend came a spotlight that neither of you could quite control. Fans found any reason to tear you down, scrutinizing everything you did or posted. Every smile caught on camera, every time you cheered for him, was picked apart by those who thought you didn’t belong by Lando’s side. Lando saw how it weighed on you, how your smile grew more guarded. It tore at him—he wanted to protect you, to shield you from the dark side of his world, but he couldn’t. Finally, in a heartbreaking conversation, he made the decision. Lando chose to end it, not because he wanted to, but because he couldn’t bear to watch you suffer for being with him. It’s been almost a month since you parted ways. One weekend, it became too loud to be by yourself, so you returned home to your parents.

“Hey, honey….. It’s good to finally have you home again, but—before you come in—something strange arrived yesterday on the porch…. I think it’s from Lando….” your mother said, opening the door to your childhood room, where a large teddy bear, holding a basket of flowers and your favorite makeup and sweets, sat on the bed.
