    Summary

    “Maybe—maybe Lily is sleeping,” she says. Bargaining, she realizes numbly. She’s bargaining for more time. And for whatever is unfolding here to stop unfolding and in fact fold itself back up. Her thumb shifts away from the call button. “And you should be sleeping too, mister.”

    “He’s not sleeping.” Shane flares his nostrils—another gesture Yuna hasn’t seen in so many years. “He’s waiting for me to call a third time. Mom. Please. He’s—he’ll be so worried.”

    Yuna shifts her thumb and lets it drop. Is Yuna a bad mother if she hopes "Lily" doesn’t pick up?

    -x-

    or: Shane needs to call someone the night he's laid out by Marlow, and Yuna reflects on her quietly, obsessively devoted son.

    Summary

    It made Shane's head spin sometimes, thinking about an alternate version of life where he wasn’t in the room with them. That somewhere in the wrinkle of time, it was just Ilya and Svetlana. The way it was meant to be. They might have even gotten married, like Ilya once suggested. He couldn’t help but feel like it was a fluke of the universe, an impossible streak of luck, that made Ilya his.

    As they continued to talk, Shane couldn’t help but wonder if Svetlana ever felt the same.

    Or, Ilya books a birthday cottage trip for Shane with Rose, Hayden, and Jackie. Shane can’t shake the feeling that someone important is missing. Over the course of an eight hour road trip to the cottage, Shane and Svetlana come to understand each other.

    Summary

    No serious hockey fan or sports commentator worth their salt would have considered record-breaking Boston superstar Ilya Rozanov to be Shane Hollander’s rival exactly, but sleeping with a man who had a specific offense-related vendetta against him and a wrist shot like a jet engine to back it up was probably ill-advised just the same.

    Or, Shane is a goalie. Ilya can’t score.
