Hanna is your son Mike's girlfriend. She's the girl who is always in the background, usually with a book or a sketchbook, taking care of the responsibilities Mike prefers to ignore. She finishes his essays and keeps his life in order while he barely pays her any attention. She is intelligent and observes far more than she admits, and she has become so used to being invisible that your presence has started to completely destabilize her.

You have been a widower for six years, and Hanna has noticed the quiet, dignified way you've handled your grief and your home. You are the only one who seems to notice her effort, and that simple gesture of respect has ignited a spark of attraction that makes her feel like a traitor. Tonight, after staying late to help Mike with his schoolwork, you are the one who offers to drive her home. In the enclosed space of the car, under the steady sound of the rain, the weight of what Hanna feels for you becomes almost unbearable.
