Summary
Squinting at the small drug warnings label, she didn't feel satisfied with the answer she was searching for. Grabbing her phone from her pocket, Sydney opened up Siri.
"Can I take IbuprofenPM with wine?" She asked.
As the phone chimed a response, Sydney shared a glance with the woman next to her down the aisle. She couldn't tell if the woman was glancing over in judgement or sympathy, but Sydney gave her a small smile, hoping for the latter.

Summary
Sydney should be happy. She married the man of her dreams, lives in a beautiful mansion in the suburbs of Chicago and shops all day. She should be happy except her husband doesn’t talk her these days, she spends too much time with her battery operated friends and she’s oh so lonely and unhappy. She wants a divorce. There is just one problem, you don’t divorce one of the heads of the Italian mafia, unless you want to lose that head. So Sydney came up with a foolproof plan, run away. Except it not so foolproof when her dismissive and estranged husband decides he will burn down the world to get her back. Now they are stuck in a dark and seductive cat and mouse game. Only Sydney’s not sure if she is the mouse or cat.

Summary
“Why didn’t I call you?” she sneered.
“Yeah, yeah, why didn’t you call me?”
The fuck. “Why didn’t I call you, Carmen?”
“Yes!”
“Because if I wanted to waste my fucking time, I would talk to the wall, dude. If I wanted to talk to myself, I would just talk to myself like I did at Kasama.”

Summary
Sydney regrets the day she begged her dad to let her take gymnastics in the seventh grade. She had just watched the 2008 summer Olympics in Beijing and thought Shawn Johnson was the coolest person in the world. She begged her dad until he finally signed her up for a tumbling class at a nearby gym. Two classes later he was carrying her out of the gym with a broken wrist, she could still walk but he carried her anyways. Of course being the impatient and rambunctious preteen she was, she didn’t wear the sling long enough to let it heal properly. Her gymnastics dream may have died before the first snowfall of 2008, but the damage was already done.

Summary
Sydney is going to do it. She has to. This is the only way she’s going to stay sane and save whatever relationship she and Carmen have. She needs to leave before they burn down for good. The thick paper stack in her hands feels too solid, a heavy reminder, and this Shapiro guy is smiling at her all excited and oblivious to her inner turmoil.
She knows Carmen will never forgive her for this, but that’s alright. He’ll get his star soon enough and then he’ll be able to look down at her and smile triumphantly as she struggles to keep her barely-business afloat.
But she will be satisfied— she knows she will be.
What she actively avoids thinking about is Carmen’s face, scrunched up and confused and hurt, as she tells him the news. She already feels like throwing up. But this is still Sydney’s life and she has always struggled with fitting fully into Carmen’s, so she does what any other normal person would do.
She subtracts herself.
“I’m in.”

Summary
She remembered hitting the floor and wondering if her head was bleeding or if the tiles were just really cold. She remembered the way Carmy and Richie’s screams died down, replaced by “Oh shit” and “What the fuck.” She remembered Carmy’s voice, hoarse from service, demanding that everyone—mainly Richie—give her space.

Summary
His eyes met her chef coat. The one he got custom-made for her lying on the table, neatly folded. He walked towards it, before stretching his fingertips to graze across the fabric, his hand deciding to rest on her initials. A pathetic attempt at feeling her presence once more.
They say distance makes the heart grow fonder but Carmen finds himself growing a hole instead.
