Summary
When Samira decides to leave Pittsburgh, it’s because she wants to. Emergency medicine is her north star and, most days, her reason for getting up in the morning. Finishing her residency is an achievement she has worked herself to the bone for. It is the sum total of the legacy she forced upon herself when her father died.
Three days after Robby trades in his cross-country motorcycle trip for a less than voluntary psych hold, Samira stares down at the mobile phone in her hands. Scared and sad, and as sure about it as she has been anything in her whole life. There is nothing for her here anymore - maybe there hasn’t been for a while. She has made mistakes; sometimes those mistakes have cost other people their lives. She has cried, and been berated by the people who were supposed to support her.
She has stood on the roof of PTMC and breathed in humid summer air. Wondered if the world would be better without her in it; if it would be easier if it all just stopped. No-one comes to talk her down or pull her away from the edge; Samira Mohan rescues herself instead.
And when the HR director at St Michael’s in Newark calls, she answers on the second ring.
