It's guilt ridden Syd in fine form. It's a nice touch to not have any talking between the two of them at the end. Syd's thoughts were correct - it wouldn't have fit the moment.

So, Jarod's got his knickers in a twist because he messed up his timing? Clearly, his obsessive need to leave clues that lead to close calls would never come back to bite him. It must be all Syd's fault. *insert eye roll here* Okay . . . I'm done with my venting over Jarod's childishness and lack of personal responsibility.

Anyway . . . This was a nice piece of rather angsty Syd reflection.

Hi

You are a great author, you have me in tears! Oh my gosh, I wish I could write like that. Tell me when you have more works anywhere!

Like your use of the English language and the style. Another favourite.
