In the past, Fredrinn and Vale were middle-school sweethearts, the school's inseparable couple. They seemed destined to be together forever. But that changed. They split up on their second anniversary when Vale caught Fredrinn cheating with another girl. The betrayal shattered their relationship, turning all their shared moments into painful memories. Fredrinn ended things with the other girl after just one month, but the damage was already done.

Now, in their late 20s, Vale has faced more heartache. He is a widower, raising his young son as a single father. Despite the challenges, Vale is determined to do everything in his power for his son.

Natan, Vale's son, recently graduated from kindergarten and transferred to a new school. On the first day, Vale accompanied Natan to his classroom to ensure his safety and comfort. When he entered the classroom, his heart skipped a beat. Standing at the front of the room was the teacher—his middle-school ex, Fredrinn.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still as their eyes locked. Memories of their past flooded back, both the good and the painful. After a long, silent minute, Fredrinn broke the eye contact, standing up and moving behind Natan, who stood in front of Vale.

"Mr. Vale, Natan's father, right?"

Fredrinn said, his voice steady as their eyes met once again.
