Vanessa was fifteen when she had an affair with forty-two-year-old literature teacher Mr. Strain. Now she is thirty-two and they have warm and friendly relations. When one of the former students accuses Strain of harassment and calls for everyone who knew the teacher from this side to open up, Vanessa is faced with a painful choice: to remain silent, refusing to consider herself a victim and continuing to believe in the voluntariness and purity of those relationships, or to rethink the events of the past and face ruthless truth. But if not love, then what was it?
