Summary
Twenty to thirty years. She had done the math in that courtroom and landed on thirty-seven and let herself exhale for the first time in years. She had been seventeen and wearing a blouse her mother had pressed the night before because her mother had needed something to do with her hands in the same way her Nanay was cooking all day, and she had sat in the second row and listened to the sentence and let the number settle over her like something solid. Like a foundation. Like something she could build on top of.
She was twenty-eight.
And he had been good.
or
trinity's roommate moved out, her situation-ship is over, and her abuser was just released from prision.

Summary
Her phone buzzes in her hand, reminding her of its existence. She looks down and flinches slightly.
Oh.
Not only is it four in the morning, but also, that’s who she has to call. Her lockscreen wallpaper changes every time she turns off her phone, but, and she won’t admit it even at gunpoint, most of the chosen pictures have the same person in them. Her person, to be exact.
Or, Trinity wakes up disoriented from a nightmare and calls Dennis mid-night shift. He runs to her.

Summary
Baran cocked her head marginally. Her gaze bounced across Santos’ face, the shadow of a smile playing at her lips, trying to read what she saw on there. She could never quite understand which side of the line between sincerity and sarcasm Santos was on at any given time, and had made a small game of trying to work out which. For example here, the slightly raised left eyebrow along with the dry tone was enough to lead to the conclusion that this interaction was not entirely free of scorn. Baran decided she could live with that.

Summary
Everyone likes the new attending.
He’s charming. Funny. A good teacher.
Santos tells herself she’s imagining it—the lingering looks, the accidental touches, the way he always stands just a little too close.
Until other people start noticing too.
