A woman owns and operates a small cafe when a man arrives with a rucksack and demands to be hired. She reluctantly agrees, and he becomes a live-in employee. His cooking is exceptional, and he accepts a very low hourly wage. As time passes, it becomes clear that the arrangement is more personal than professional. When the woman is attacked, the man tends to her wounds and helps calm her. She believes that kissing the injuries helps them heal.
