On Sunday we rode the metro to the very North of the city. And we got off at the last stop and went and got two little coffees and a bagel to share and sat outside a cafe with a blue awning and fake snowflakes in the window. We looked at the people in the square and wondered where they came from and where they were going. There was a woman with too many dogs and another woman with not enough. People were doing their Christmas shopping and people were talking on their phones. Some of them were looking where they were going. I could see my breath but my hands weren’t cold because I was wearing the warm green mittens you got me for my birthday. We got another two coffees.
