Summary
They don’t talk about the nights come morning, the secrets and the shame of the darkness before cast aside and enshrouded in the depths of their now-shared history. He tries to piece together snippets of her frequent unravelings, the cause and reasoning behind what sets her off. Her father, mostly. A past boyfriend. Her career. Her name. It’s anything and everything.
.
Or, Tom and Shiv meeting and falling, slowly, for each other.

Summary
Shiv bites her lip as she remains under her mother’s microscopic gaze, automatically attempting to rearrange her blazer in front of her. Had it looked a bit tight? It certainly feels too small now.
“Christ.”
And just like that, the room goes cold. A cloud covers the sun. It’s darker, quieter. Save for two women breathing deeply. A clock ticks, a door slams below. Caroline doesn’t stop staring, Shiv wishes she would. She can’t breathe.
.
.
OR, simply— The first person who finds out about Shiv’s pregnancy is quite frankly the last she wanted to tell.

Summary
Shiv doesn’t ask for any extra details, she doesn’t ask anything, in fact, just a simple question: Can you go through it again, what happened? And when she’d asked the second time, followed by a third, Tom had wondered how far down she'd fallen into her spiral of disbelief, if telling her the story over and over would pull her back out or push her further away from acceptance.

Summary
Shiv’s reminded, as she looks at him, of the morning she woke up and looked at his sleep-soft face and realized she loved him. It was a sinking feeling. She hadn’t meant for it to happen.

Summary
One night at the summer palace she and Rava shared a bottle of wine, no glasses, with their toes in the pool, and gossiped about all their college hookups. Shiv laughed until her stomach hurt and told Kendall, in the morning, that he was punching above his weight.
And then there was a ring. A white dress, a party attended by the president. A disconnect, a mistake. A child.

Summary
He can’t stop thinking about Shiv’s face. The twist of her mouth, the fall of her jaw, the hurt in her eyes that kept flashing over to rage. Well that’s not very nice to say, is it?
