Summary
The worst part of it all is that Connor can’t pinpoint exactly when and where things started to go wrong between them. At the same time, he won’t stand here and lie and pretend that he hasn’t noticed the gradual decline. Mold, growing over their friendship. What was that thing people say about rotten apples? How it poisons the barrel and nothing is safe? He wonders, if he could peel back their layers—all that history, everything they have ever shared, would he find rot, too? Is there nothing sacred anymore between them? But this is all rhetorical. Connor isn’t really asking, because he’s not sure he’s going to like the answer.

Summary
The first call comes early, when Ilya is still skating along the edge of a dream. Shane is tucked in warm at his side, and his hair scratches at the underside of Ilya’s jaw, and the tender patch that always tickles just beneath his ear. He can hear the vibration against the wooden bedside table, the soft buzz buzz buzz incessant as a mosquito but he ignores it to go back in the warmth of his sleepy haze.
Later, when the sun is fully up and Shane pulls from his warm and sweaty side, he checks his phone. It’s an unknown number, the region code is for Russia.
OR
Ilya's niece reaches out to him eight years after he's last seen her. It makes him think about the things he never let himself miss.

Summary
There's no good way to be stuck in an elevator. Not when you're stuck in an elevator with someone who treats being annoying as an art form he wants to perfect, and definitely not when that person is your son's rival who you've hated for years.
But, when Yuna finds herself stuck in an elevator with Ilya Rozanov, she realises there's more to the story than she'd seen.
