Adelaida offered a smile to the mother who was sharing something special with her child. Although the woman had invited her to join them, Adelaida felt like an intruder just then. A peeping tom even. Watching something that should have been pure and beautiful and deriving something more dirty from it. Adelaida couldn’t remember her first sunrise, her first sunset, or ever looking at either with her parents or siblings though she knew she had. It just had never been so organized, never so on purpose. Still she was here and she would make the best of it. When the sun finally did peek over the horizon and the girl squeaked out her excitement Adelaida got a fresh burst of confidence. Maybe she could make conversation. Maybe she wasn’t socially inept. "Whose her father? Is he from Inferni too?" Or maybe she was.
