It was freezing.
Not just uncomfortably cold, but the entire world had been flash-frozen
in an instant.
The only sound was crackling ice as everything and everyone tried to
move, to escape, to go…where?
There was nowhere that wasn’t frozen.
They looked at each other, less than six feet apart but an eternity
away, only able to move their eyes behind frost-encrusted lashes.
With a Herculean effort, he said, “I love you”, his words literally
hanging in the air. A frozen tear formed in her eye, and she whispered, “I love
you, too.”
