                                              The streetlight softly illuminates the after-midnight air, revealing snowflakes drifting to the ground.
                          A woman and a dog stand in the shadow of the light. The cold tickles their throat and lungs and nibbles on their skin. 
                          There, they stay even as the temperature drops. 

                          Maybe they're waiting for the family of deer that has been visiting the houses on the street. 
                          Maybe they're enjoying the wintry calm before they return to their lives. 

                          Or maybe they're simply watching the snow in wonder.
