Vader experienced the special experience of life in the summer of 1972, her first kiss, and learning to share with her father that another woman experienced the pain of losing a best friend. Three years later, in the spring, Vida's stepmother became pregnant. Just when the family was delighted to look forward to the arrival of her little life and faced the situation that her friend already had a boyfriend, she became lonely in adolescence. In the English poetry class, the teacher asked everyone to write a report. The theme was to choose an admirer who had never met. Vida was determined to focus on her mother who died in childbirth, but Vida had no relatives and friends who knew her mother deeply. Her stepmother then encouraged Vida to use spring break to fly to her mother's hometown of ── Los Angeles to visit her uncle and collect information about her mother's life.
