Summary
“She can’t kill me,” Jack mumbled, fingers tugging absently at the stubborn tungsten ring that still clung to his left hand. “She’s gone, a casualty of ‘irreconcilable differences’ and the Allegheny County court.”
Several seats down, an older regular lowered his beer and shook his head. “The worst part is waking up alone.”
Jack pointed a trembling finger at the old man. “See? He gets it.”
—
A drunken, Jack Abbot copes with his heartbreak by dramatically whining to the regulars that his wife is dead, until she actually shows up to drag him home.

Summary
“Look at him, Samira,” Jack says. The words seem lodged in his throat. He's forcing them out. “Sweetheart fucking face. And they were gonna kill him.”
He kisses the dog on the top of its head. And Samira usually finds that sort of behavior foreign and disgusting, but she puddles just a little more when she sees Jack Abbot do it.
“So you took a chance on him?” she says.
“What can I say?” Jack lifts the tags on his dog’s collar with a crook of his finger. Samira watches as they slide, metal on metal, identifying information, dents and dings—and she sees it, she aches as she sees it, that scrape of metal limbs and dog tags in gray matter memories. “I'm a sucker for lost fucking causes.”
-
Jack rescues a tripod dog with a history of violence. Samira learns what they each have in common.
