  Amber looked at the exchange betweent he waitress
and Julia and Derek.  She couldn't quite repress the
slight twinge of pain she felt at seeing a happy
family.  She chastized herself for being once again
stupid and self-pitying, but somehow, the memory of
her own parents seemed to come back to her at the
worst moments, and seeing Julia and Derek glowing with
expecting a baby, well, it brought back memories from
her own childhood, and with that, inevitably came the
memories of their last night alive.
