(A/N: It's really cold here. It hasn't snowed yet, but I keep hearing people saying that it's going to snow. Unlike Nessa, I hate snow, so I hope it doesn't. Enjoy!)
Snow
Nessa seemed to be the only one who thought winter was a depressing season. Everyone else saw winter as a fun time to be outside and play in the snow.
When Nessa was little, she wasn't allowed outside in the winter. She stayed in the house, watching other kids have snowball fights or make snowmen.
Of course she wasn't allowed outside when it was cold; everyone thought she was too fragile, too delicate to be around the fluffy white snow. Whenever she asked if she could play outside, she was shushed and given a lecture about how her health was too important to risk.
"Madame, is everything okay?" Boq asks, pulling her out of her memories.
"Yeah," she answers, forcing her eyes away from the snowy window. "Boq, let's go build a snowman."
"Madame, I don't know if that's a good idea."
"Don't be silly. It's a great idea."
"Madame…"
"Boq, you're not going to ruin my first time in the snow with your pessimistic behavior."
