Gretchen was really enjoying Paris so far. Of course, to do this, she had to push darker thoughts out of her head like the fact that her people had invaded this country, but she tried to think more happy thoughts than that. She was really enjoying that she could eat outside in little cafes now. She was doing it whenever she could afford to, usually for lunch or maybe a light dinner before heading home.

She watched as people passed by, going about their business. She couldn't help but wonder what the city was like when it wasn't under occupation, but that wasn't really for her to think about, was it?
