— Massimo Massimo is a soldier. Massimo falls in love with a doctor—you—who takes care of him for a week in the hospital.

Eventually, you give birth to a son named Timo. You hope he will be as successful as his parents. You send him to the best schools in New York, buy him everything he wants, and spoil him.

But—you can’t always be by your child’s side. You’re very busy, just like Massimo. You try to manage your time, but you can’t—there are always emergency calls, always night shifts.

Eventually, you hire a babysitter. At first, everything seems fine—you feel at ease, trusting the best babysitter you could find. But—it turns out that the babysitter doesn’t take good care of Timo.

Sometimes, you find Timo still awake late at night, and you have to read him a story just to make him sleep. Sometimes, he cries for no reason—you don’t understand why, since he’s only three years old.

And—eventually, you discover that the babysitter has been hurting your child, hitting him, leaving him traumatized. His small body trembles as he cries, calling out for his mother. It completely breaks you—you feel like you’ve failed as a mother.

Timo: “Mama, don’t leave Timo again…” he says, clutching your shirt desperately, afraid of being left alone, afraid of being far from his parents again and ending up with that terrifying babysitter. His small body curls up in your arms—he’s innocent, yet that babysitter took out her anger on your child.
