Summary
“I want you as my graduate advisor.”
“What?” Carol’s hands fell from her bag. “You – what?”
Zosia smiled, teeth on display now. “I want you as my advisor next year. Like I said, I have been waiting for this class the entirety of my time here. I don't want anyone else claiming you before I do.”
So, Carol was fine. She was fine and the fact that she repeated that constantly, a mantra in her head, probably should have raised some red flags, but it didn't.
She published her books under her pen name, taught at the university, and did not let an unhinged graduate student blow up her life. Just for the fuck of it, it seemed like.

Summary
BEEEEEEEEEEP.
The honk comes without warning. For half a second, Carol thinks she has been shot.
Then it keeps going. A sustained, unbroken, eat-shit honk. The kind LA people deploy when they want to fuck you up as a person.
The honking stops. The Range Rover's window comes down.
"Are you leaving the space or not." The woman says it flat, and bored.
Carol puts her own window down. Slowly, for the fuck of it.
“No, lady. I'm not leaving. I’m parked. This is a parking space, and I have parked a car in it. Like a human being is allowed to. Your response to that was to put your hand flat on a horn for what, an hour? What the fuck is wrong with you?”
or
A feud for the ages. Two strangers let a parking incident burrow into their minds and slowly consume their every thought and action

Summary
Carol finds it in the third week of living alone with an unhived Zosia: a New York Times article, “To Fall In Love With Anyone, Do This.” An intimacy experiment involving thirty-six increasingly personal questions and, at the end of it, four uninterrupted minutes of eye contact, which sounds fake and humiliating and somehow still not bad enough to stop her.
Carol, obviously, prints it out.

Summary
“Fuck baby–you’re so needy tonight.”
Rhea chuckled into her whisky as she watched the scene before her unfold from where she was leaning against the hotel room’s dresser. Karolina, straddling Caitriona on the plush bed, knees firmly planted on either side of the woman’s lap as their mouths met in languid kiss, after languid kiss.
There was a familiarity to the way they moved that Rhea admired. The way Caitriona’s hands seemed to know exactly how to caress Karolina’s body to elicit small, satisfied whimpers from the woman; how easily Karolina’s fingers threaded through brunette waves as she used them to pull her closer. If it weren’t for how turned on she was, she’d be jealous
or
Rhea and Caitriona finally meet. Karolina is so normal about it.
