Snow Caps
Four days after a historic snow blizzard that shook the city, Melissa was certain it was only a matter of time before people began to tumble on the ice.
After multiple near-misses, she slid and fell too. Fortunately, she wasn’t hurt – accustomed to falling ever so randomly.
That’s when she felt a gentle squeeze on her arm. “Are you OK?” Tall, slender, with glistening emerald eyes, Nick – as she would soon learn – was genuinely concerned. “May I offer you a hot chocolate to toss off the cold?”
And somehow like that, each day becomes unique, fascinating, and seldom boring.

I wish more of this kind of thing would happen in this neck of the woods. I’d probably lie there in the ditch until the rats found me in the spring 😉
