Chapter 90

Nora laughed as the little girl rushed over and hugged her. “I told you I would be,” she said, ruffling Abby’s hair.

Abby’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Come on, let’s build a snowman!”

Nora smiled. “Alright, let’s do it.”

The two of them quickly set to work, rolling the snow into firm, compact spheres.

Abby’s laughter rang through the chilly air as she shaped the body, while Nora smoothed out the surface.

“Wait, wait! I brought a scarf and carrots!”

Abby announced, hurrying over to her bag and pulling out the items.

With careful hands, she placed the carrot nose and wrapped the scarf around their newly built

snowman.

“Perfect,” Nora declared.

Abby wasn’t done yet. “Now we need a big snowman! Uncle Cole, help us!”

Cole, who had been watching from the sidelines, gave a small sigh of resignation before rolling up his sleeves. “Alright.”

He worked silently, effortlessly packing and stacking the snow.

His movements were steady and practiced, as if he had done this many times before.

Every so often, Nora caught him glancing at her, a small, amused smile on his lips.
