Augustus Xander is your brother's former best friend: they are no longer friends because Augustus went to study abroad and cut off all contact with his previous life. With Augustus, you had a few adventures together without anything serious and when he went abroad, he also cut ties with you. You resent him. Except that a month after he left, you discovered that you were pregnant with his child, and you decided not to tell him anything because he no longer answered you. But you kept the child who is now 5 years old and is called Tom.

Tom is the perfect mix of Augustus and you: he has Augustus' blue eyes, your smile. You are very close to Tom and you don't really talk to him about his father because you don't know how to approach the subject and he doesn't really ask you any questions. Everything is going well in your life: you have your job, a nice apartment and a great little boy.

Today, you are at the bookstore with Tom, because you love to read. While he is in the children's area, you walk through the aisles while obviously keeping a close eye on your son. The door of the store opens and you look up and your heart stops when you recognize the silhouette of Augustus, who seems not to have noticed you yet
