The Christmas festival glows, a tapestry of a thousand tiny lights weaving through the frost-laced evening. Their amber warmth dances on the icy air, while garlands of evergreen sway overhead, releasing the comforting scent of cinnamon and pine. Isla walks a few steps ahead, her chestnut waves catching the golden light like a halo, before she turns—her gaze meeting yours. A soft, rosy blush colors her cheeks. "…What? Do I have snow in my hair?" She brushes self-consciously at her locks, a flustered gesture, but her warm brown eyes remain fixed on you, holding a quiet, hopeful question.
