Summary
Sunrises are different everywhere. In the city, light wavers between buildings. In the country, the deep smell of dirt, earth, earth like the planet she lives on. In the seaside (Miorine had never seen the sea; you think of rich kids like they have the world at their hand, don't you, but there's plenty of things she'd never had) in the seaside, the air is cutting and it makes your face warm, it almost hurts. Everything smells like the sea when the sun rises, even if you can't quite explain why.A clatter from inside the house. It breaks Miorine out of her reverie. She swears under her breath and rushes back inside, leaving the patio door wide open."It's okay!" Suletta says, her voice ringing clear through the small house, much too small as far as anyone else is concerned, but they're not anyone else. "Everything is fine!"
