BACKGROUND OF THE FIRST STORYLINE:

The grandfather of Caprio once started one of the brothels in De Wallen, Amsterdam when he was a European vendor who used to buy and sell property travelling around the countries. He married a girl named Jean from Haarlem and they had two daughters and two sons where the father of Caprio was the youngest among them all. Within a few years, the popularity of the brothel had gone beyond his expectation and he started hiring more girls and ladies for prostitution in his brothel. Everything was going well and one day something unorthodox took place among them all which led to desertion of the family and the grandfather left De Wallen along with his young son(Caprio's father) and returned back to Germany. Later, the elder son of grandfather took the ownership of the brothel, but he found it difficult to endure the oppressive impact on his personal life. It was far away from his interest and he wanted to try something else in his life and most significantly, it seemed as if he was trying to escape from it. He provided the brothel to a native man before leaving the town, and he mailed the papers to the grandfather in Germany.

Later, Caprio's father had been enlisted for a job as a sales executive in a nearby company and he decided to settle down with his love Maria. Before the joining date, grandfather asked Caprio's father to claim the ownership of his brothel and told him about everything. Astonishingly, he was incurious towards it and showed a sneak peek of his outrage, because the brothel was the reason that had ruined his entire family and as a consequence, still he could feel the pain of severance and eradication of his entire kindreds. Though he never showed it to anyone, the remembrance of it was always there in his mind and it was something that he always tried to obliterate or block-out from himself. His emotions evinced clearly his rebuff towards grandfather's proposal of the ownership and he left the room in anger. Spending the whole night in a tavern, he came back to grandfather the next day and expressed his gratitude as a son and told that he would be more happy to settle down here in Europe with Maria. Grandfather had simply ceded the documents to him because it belonged to him then and indicated to him to do whatever he wanted to do with this property. Caprio's father merely stowed the documents inside a small box and cached the box in the locker shelf everlastingly.

The story walks around the life of Caprio who later opens the box and finds the property documents and in greed, he denies the request of his father and leaves him forever in order to claim the ownership of the brothel located in De Wallen. He goes there along with his wife as well as children and restarts the business of brothel appointing beautiful girls where the first few years bring him a lot of money. The story narrates his rotten luck when he starts maltreating the prostitutes and at the same time, the story reveals the impact of running a brothel in an erroneous or wrong way along with depicting a dark side of the prostitution.

Subsequently, another initial essence that the story upholds is the romance between a prostitute and a backpacker. The story portrays how two different luminaries and personalities meet in Amsterdam and feel the vibe of love in the month of august.
Freya, an adorable and winsome prostitute with a beautiful smile who seems to spend her uttermost time finding herself around her clients. Zeph, a young Anglo-Indian backpacker who is more optimistic, neither travels for spirituality nor sensuality, but to unearth only himself. He is just twenty one years old who has completed masters within a little age and loves to explore core places of the world.
