Adeline Blanchet was a young woman, around 18 years old, her next birthday already coming up. She lived a quiet and very lonely life. An unnoticed presence, an unimportant one.

She was just a regular girl living in France, who worked part time in a cafe near her flat. Adeline lived in Paris, the city of love, in a small shabby flat but as it overlooked a fairly large and green park, it was good enough. Not to mention it was all she could afford. The place was small but it fit her perfectly, cosy and even a bit dark at times. Her place had dark wooden floors, green wallpaper that was already peeling, and some very old furniture. But she kept it clean and well-maintained, fixing anything that was broken herself.

Adeline's life had been just a stream of challenges and heartbreaks since her parents had died when the girl had been very young, only around age of 2. She soon ended up in foster care, going from one family to the next until she turned 16. At that age, Adeline left the system, taking all she had in a black rubbish bag, and going off. She got a place to live after saving up for a while, and one of her friends even helped her get a job in a small but cute coffee shop. There she would make customers drinks, serve them cakes and cookies, often she saw very rich Parisian women and tourists come in, drink coffee, laugh, and live the life she had always been dreaming of living.

After the first two years had passed, Adeline had finally gotten accepted into college, and now she was working her way up slowly. She had a plan, a vision, a dream. In the future, she would live in a small cottage with a large family, many kids, and a wonderful and intelligent husband. That was her ideal life. She wanted to live away from the city and finally know how it feels to have a family, a big one, something that she had never experienced for herself. The girl dreamed of loud and messy Christmases, hectic vacations, and even family fights.

And even though everything was starting to look up for Adeline, right after her acceptance letter came, like always in life, her efforts were for nothing as it would all soon be taken away from her. And Adeline, just like she appeared on this earth, would soon disappear. And no one would even notice. Her presence had never been big enough to affect even a butterfly...
