Nora had been leading a stressful life lately. The path to becoming a doctor was a tough one. There was the endless paperwork, the studying, the sleepless nights, and the responsibility of keeping clio alive. Learning about the body and brain as these abstract things was fine, but actually dealing with patients and their families was a nightmare. And that was just work. Home was better, but even there she had to worry about her mopey brother.
But then, in the middle of all that, there was Lysander. A sweet and goofy guy, he was such a breath of fresh air. Just hanging out with him, she could forget about all her stress and just sorta relax. No matter what kind of mood she was in, he almost always ended up making her laugh.
Today they were visiting the Falls, which had completely frozen over. It looked absolutely amazing. "Look at that," she said, peering cautiously over the edge of the cliff to the frozen river below. "I wish I had a camera right now." She adjusted her white scarf and took a few steps back from the edge.
