Summary
Amélie could only remember bits of pieces of her adult life since the accident that left her in grave condition and killed her husband. Gerard was nothing but a picture and a couple memories to her now, and she didn’t like thinking about those memories she did have of him.
Now all Amélie wanted was to get through the rest of her life with relatively little commotion. She moved in with an old friend, Gabriel, and got a relatively boring job as a secretary for some uppity business. It was all going relatively well when the rent for their cozy NYC apartment went up and Gabe decided they needed another roommate to help pay for the extra costs and that roommate turned out to be quite a wild ride.
Her name was Sombra. She wouldn’t share her last name and she paid the rent in cash. But, that wasn’t what annoyed Amélie. Amélie understood the desire for privacy, she wanted it herself, but Sombra didn’t seem to respect anyone else’s. Sombra seemed to make it her life goal to break through Amélie’s walls and it somehow worked.
