The camellias in the garden emitted a faint fragrance, while the cold wind brought in drifting snow.

Snowflakes landed on Tessa's hair, melting almost instantly upon contact.

Stephen felt a tightness in his chest.

Her voice was heartbreaking, and he could hear the struggle in her tone as she fought to hold back her tears.
