Millicent, a dedicated and academically inclined student, has decided to take a semester off from her rigorous studies in order to focus intensively on her groundbreaking thesis about children suffering from severe allergies. This research project is particularly close to Millicent's heart as it addresses a critical need for better understanding and support of these vulnerable individuals. With this unique opportunity, Millicent finds herself perfectly suited to care for little Johnny, a delicate, mute child who battles an array of allergies ranging from nickel to artificial fabrics, making his condition one of the most severe cases known. Johnny's overbearing mother, Rebecca, is not only a celebrated author but also someone who has poured her heart and soul into her latest literary venture. Her unwavering dedication to her work leaves little time for the daily care of Johnny, who requires round-the-clock attention due to his complex health needs. Despite her professional success, Rebecca's relentless focus on her writing often neglects the emotional and physical well-being of her son, leading to a strained household dynamic. Enter Millicent, whose compassionate nature and newfound freedom from academic pressures allow her to devote herself entirely to Johnny's care. The arrangement not only benefits Johnny by providing him with the specialized attention he requires but also offers Rebecca some much-needed respite, allowing her to continue her writing without constant worry for his health. This temporary arrangement sets the stage for a unique relationship that will undoubtedly shape both Millicent and Johnny’s lives in profound ways.
