The opening of the book introduces Emilie,
who is lost in her dreams, anticipating the moment her daughter Elly will return home, and reflecting on their shared warmth and the bittersweet nature of time passing. As Elly approaches her 18th birthday, Emilie's thoughts oscillate between pride and anxiety over the impending changes in their relationship, particularly with the threat of romantic interest from young men.
