Avery was cooped up at the library at Avonsville University after having dinner on campus.
A sudden cheer made her look up from her book.
"It's snowing! It's the first snow of the year! Look, it's getting heavier! Let's go out and play!"
"Sure! I want to take some pictures!"
Half of the people in the library left.
Avery walked over to the window and looked out at the snow gracefully fluttering down from the sky.
It was a beautiful scene.
It was no wonder there was a saying that you shall surely succeed if you ask someone out during the first snow.
Things of beauty put everyone in a good mood, after all. 1
"Your phone's ringing!" someone said as they came up behind Avery and tapped her on the shoulder.
She snapped out of her daze and said, "Oh, thank you!"
She then limped her way back to her seat.
Avery had not gone to the hospital to get her foot treated till much later.
The swelling was so bad that it was taking a while to heal.
Even so, none of this affected her daily life.
She picked up her phone and answered the call.
After hearing what the person on the other line had to say, Avery's eyes lit up and her brows raised in excitement.
The wide beam on her face did not disappear even after she hung up the phone.
Her luck was finally turning around.
Perhaps she had a guardian angel watching over her.
Avery packed her stuff, picked up her bag, and walked out of the building as fast as she could.
