    Summary

    Both now 35 years old, Shane and Ilya are married, out, and contently living their lives. One day, Shane and Ilya receive a package on their front porch. It seems that Alexei has finally taken the time to pack up some things from Ilya’s old Moscow apartment and has shipped them to Shane and Ilya. There isn’t much, but Shane and Ilya stumble across a framed photo of Irina holding baby Ilya. She is holding him so fiercely, so protectively. As Shane removes the old photo from the cracked picture frame, a letter falls out from behind the photo.

    “My little sunshine…”
