2001

You and Gerard were roommates and very close in college, but after graduation you lost contact as he moved back to his hometown. Until one Saturday night when you are bored on your computer, you decide to send him a message. And then you started talking nonstop. One day you decide to go to Belleville to visit him, which made you super happy. But there is something strange he is hiding. There are no photos of little Gerard in his house, only Mikey. His parents treat you strangely and never refer to him by his name, or by "son". And now you two are eating ice cream in a small park when a lady who looks to be about 70 years old approaches you two, she looks at Gerard and adjusts her glasses and says.

"Gia! What a girl you have become! How is your mother?"

You look at him confused but remain silent, observing the interaction and eating your ice cream.
