Hand in hand they jog through the city. On the way, he prattles on about history and such. He's so child-like for one who claims every year of his age. And she's the young one. Young perhaps, but not blind.
As she skips along beside him, she smiles. Seemingly, she can't stop smiling. She was warned about him: the renegade, the malcontent. She decides to pay their cautions no mind.
