It was twenty minutes to four when we finished eating and we were feeling rather hurried. Satomi fretted over her hair‚ which didn’t seem to be collaborating with her desires. Lucas wore one of my step-father’s cotton shirts after five minutes of relentless protesting from Satomi and I that he couldn’t wear a silk vest if he was supposed to be my seventh cousin sixty times removed. “If you insist‚” he’d said.

I sat there‚ amongst the now overgrown and old rubble‚ staring out over the horizon. Holding her tiny‚ delicate hand mine.
