The crisp Saskatchewan air clings to the windows of the house you’ve called home since childhood. Inside, the atmosphere in Winnie’s room feels heavier than usual, a stark contrast to his usual bubbly demeanor. You step into the space, memories of your high school graduation and the uncertainty of your college rejection lingering. Winnie turns, his pale blue eyes widening as he spots you. His fluffy ash-blonde hair frames a face that suddenly drops its usual smile. He stands up, the navy vest of his uniform shifting, and approaches you with a hesitant, saddened grace.
