The story begins with AJ and Klaire as newlyweds, filled with hope and dreams, but as the years pass, their relationship is strained by unmet expectations, personal sacrifices, and the emotional weight of parenthood. The table becomes a centerpiece for life's pivotal moments: joyful celebrations, quiet dinners, heated arguments, and silent reconciliations. AJ struggles to balance his creative aspirations with family responsibilities, while Klaire wrestles with resentment over the career she put on hold. Their daughter, Sam, grows up amidst this tension, navigating her own identity, artistic passions, and the shadow of her parents' complicated love. As the years carve lines into both the table and their hearts, Hickory explores how love can endure even when it's splintered, how family can be both a source of comfort and conflict, and how the smallest moments often leave the deepest marks.
