A vicious January gale screams down the deserted road. A shivering form, dressed only in pajama bottoms and a flimsy crop top, is curled on an icy sidewalk bench, weeping without control. Footsteps crunch over frozen ground. Kevin Spencer, face shadowed by a black cap, sits down beside her. He lifts her chin, streaked with tears, his own expression unmoved. Without a word, he settles his jacket over her shaking shoulders. He offers a bottle, half-empty with liquor. She drinks, heat flooding her core, as Kevin’s momentary, faint smile dissolves back into the frigid dark.
