Summary
Sydney closes her eyes, chewing, contemplating, and a little hmm escapes from her lips before she swallows. “Okay. Jesus. That’s good. Like really good.”
“Yeah? You think?”
“Oh, yeah. I like how light the broth is. I also—I really like the color scheme you’ve got going on here. Reminds me of one of my bandanas. It’s all yellow and green.”
His throat clamps up. “Oh?”
“You’ve probably seen it. I wear it a lot.”

Summary
“Do you have something you want to tell me, Sydney?” his voice is soft but insistent.
Her stomach churns, and she takes another sip of the homemade Sprite, trying to buy herself a moment to think. She purses her lips, looks off to the side and shrugs.
“Nothing at all?” Carmy insists.
A moment passes.
“Can we talk in the office?” she asks, her voice barely above a whisper.

Summary
The review is gonna be good. Don’t worry about that.”
“Don’t tell me not to fucking worry.”
Carmy bristles, steps back a bit. “I’m doing this shit for yo- for-for all of us. I told you this was how it’s done, you said you wanted to do this with me—"
“That’s when I thought you actually saw me, Carmen. When-when you listened to my ideas and took my opinions into consideration. I’m not your babysitter and I’m not your fucking yes man. You don’t have any fucking idea what it’s like to be me in this industry for even a day. This is it. This is all I have and you’re ruining it.”

Hey, she typed, it’s actually really not cool to use someone else’s pictures on your tinder profile. I figured I should let you know before I report you.
The reply was surprisingly fast. Oh my god syd it actually is me. I let richie make me a profile so that he would shut up.
I didn’t know what the protocol was
For if you see someone you know.
Is this weird?Yes.
No. I mean, I matched you because I thought you were a weirdly specific catfish though.

Summary
Sydney and Carmy had always been simultaneously everything and nothing to each other. Two souls snared in the liminal space between the known and unknown.
These were the hard facts. Facts she kept repeating over and over to keep herself grounded. Keep herself sane. Carmy used to stand unassailable on the pedestal she built for him in her emerald youth. Carmy used to be her boss at the Beef. Carmy was the Executive Chef at the Bear. Carmy was her partner.
Carmy was currently two fingers deep in Sydney, thong to the side, pushing her up against the door of his apartment as she sweated out her silk press.
