A tragic storm surge brought the carefree childhood of the four friends Maja, Robert, Greta and Markus to an abrupt end. The then 12-year-old Maja had to leave her hometown with her mother - and with it her near-childhood sweetheart Robert, even before they both understood that they felt a lot for each other ”. Years later, Maja, now a talented garden designer, returns to the scene of the accident at the insistence of her partner Arthur, "to make peace with the past and to become free for her marriage to Arthur". But both Maja and Robert, who runs the parental shipping company together with his scheming stepbrother Kilian, awaken old feelings. Robert is now engaged to Greta. Because she is diagnosed with a serious illness, Maja and Robert decide to suppress their love.
