On her journey to Glencone, the taxi driver remains silent. Taciturn or sensitive, it matters not, she is just thankful she doesn’t have to waste words. Richard arrives shortly afterwards. He insists on explaining, demands the right to do so. He is not a man who carries condoms in his inside pocket. It was never a requirement until that night when everything changed.

‘Once,’ he says. ‘It was a moment of madness that happened only once.’

Is once supposed to make a difference? They had been drinking shots. Did he think he was twenty again, carefree and reckless? And now Jessica is pregnant. What are the odds? Christine wonders. Calculated or bad luck? Richard never wanted children. Was that what attracted him to Christine? A woman unconcerned by the expectations of society would make a compliant partner. No agonised arguments about the tick-tock clock and that all-invasive maternal instinct.

Once…once…once. He keeps repeating this fact as if it has enough muscle to break Christine’s resolve. She doesn’t ask where the once took place. It is enough to know they made love without a surrounding canvas adding colour and texture.
