Summary
“Maybe we should tell somebody?” she asked as Carmy pulled out his wallet and checked his own driver’s license, confirming their shared address.
He shook his head. “I don’t think they’d believe us, Syd. Richie didn’t. I mean, would you believe us?” He held up his wallet. Inside the photo sleeve was a small picture of the two of them holding what appeared to be a newborn Gemma.
Sydney sighed, “No.”
She tried to imagine how it would go but in every scenario telling someone that everything about their lives was fake and wrong ended with one or both of them in psychiatric treatment and Gemma, their daughter in the care of others and not her unfit, delusional parents. Sydney shifted the car into reverse and glanced at the child sleeping in her car seat. “We’ll have to figure it out ourselves.” -

Summary
Waking up for nine, almost ten year old Natalie was rough. Well, maybe waking up was the wrong word for it. It felt less like emerging from sleep and more like being violently shoved back into a body that didn't quite fit anymore.
She remembers a different life. A cramped apartment, calluses on her fingertips from piano keys and guitar strings. Flour on her counter from late night baking. She remembers watching a show and crying for a family that wasn't hers.
Then the accident.
Now she's Natalie Berzatto, nine years old and no one knows what's coming.
No one except her.

Summary
After the fight in the alleyway on the night of their last service, Sydney can't get the idea out of her head that Carmy might hurt himself, or she at least wants to check in on him. So she calls him, because as angry as she is, she cares even more, and that's the entire damn problem isn't it
