Chapter 1 Summary: “Sasha”

Sasha is newly married to Cord Stockton, and they live in a beautiful but outdated townhouse in Brooklyn, the same one that Cord grew up in. Sasha wants to clean out some of the old belongings of the house, including the childhood bedroom of Cord’s sister. The house belongs to Cord’s parents, Tilda and Chip, who found it too big once their children grew up and moved out. Now Tilda and Chip live in a nearby apartment located in a building that they have invested in. However, virtually all of their belongings are still in the house on Pineapple Street. When Sasha and Cord ask permission to change out some of the old furniture in the house, Tilda and Chip insist that the current furniture must be kept as it is.
