Read the passage. On the hike, the trail narrowed where the trees leaned close together. Ferns brushed Sienna's legs, leaving cool drops on her socks. The group leader called out reminders, and the other campers answered with tired jokes. Sienna walked near the back, counting her steps to match her breathing. She had packed extra snacks and a small first-aid kit, even though the list hadn't required it. When a younger camper stumbled on a root, Sienna was already there, offering a hand before the leader could turn around. At the overlook, everyone spread out to take pictures. The valley below looked like a green quilt, stitched with a thin silver river. Sienna sat on a flat rock and unwrapped a granola bar, breaking it in half without thinking. The younger camper sat beside her, rubbing a scraped knee. "You're like my sister," the camper said. Sienna stared at the river for a moment, then handed over the larger piece of granola bar. "She says that too," Sienna replied, keeping her voice light. What can be inferred about Sienna based on the passage?
