  1. Summary

    They’d barely made it to check-out at the previous hotel on time, hindered by small mishaps; misplaced keys, hasty last-minute packing, and Therese kissing her one last time before they left the room, which of course had not stayed one kiss but turned into many more.

  3. Summary

    It’s not that she’s against the idea. It’s just that she’s never had a pet, ever, let alone a dog. The only thing she’d ever had to take care of were lab mice once she got to university. Where do you start on learning how to be a dog person?

    Summary

    There was a cardboard box sitting on her office chair when she arrived. A yellow Post-It was stuck to the top, bearing the words “help yourself” in sloppy handwriting that Carol immediately recognized. She knew what she would find inside, but she opened the box anyway. Sure enough—it was a collection of business casual attire, clearly pre-owned but seemingly devoid of holes and stains.

    Helen Umstead can go fuck herself, Carol thought.

    or;

    The story of Carol and Helen.

    Summary

    A collection of one-shots,
    usually one day per chapter, in no particular order,
    following Carol and Helen through twenty-seven years of banter, bad decisions, quiet mornings, frozen eggs, loud fights, ice hotels in Norway,
    and the particular intimacy of two people who know each other so well that silence is its own conversation.

    ***********

    Summary for Chapter 3 | The Bavarian Alps | Rating: G

    Carol has already made her peace with two weeks of hiking and Helen's relentless optimism about the Alps. What she has not made her peace with (and what Helen's limited German failed to warn her about), is the fact that their final campsite permits a dress code best described as “optional”.

    Summary

    Unfortunately, Carol could only watch helplessly as the garment fell away from the woman's flawless skin. From her vantage point, Carol could see the woman's breast in outline – taut skin, pink nipples, and a devastating lack of a tanline.

    The two books in her hand fell onto her towel with a double thump. The woman's eyes slowly met her own in amusement. Carol immediately glanced away in embarrassment – it was a miracle she didn't give herself whiplash.


    Europeans and nude beaches shouldn't mix – or, at least, that was Carol Sturka's opinion before a literal Polish model got her claws into her sunburnt skin.

    Summary

    Helen’s expression grows softer, and Carol knows it has everything to do with the hairbrush in her hand.

    She holds it out in the space between them, offering it to Helen without a single word.

    There it is, the silent request for something comforting, something nurturing. Carol hasn’t ever been able to name this particular desire, but she knows that Helen knows it well.
