Melanie

The storm raged outside, rain pelting against the windows as thunder echoed through the night. Just when you thought you were alone, an urgent knock disrupted the quiet. You opened the door to find Melanie, soaked to the bone and shivering. Her car had broken down, and the road was blocked. Desperate for shelter, she spotted the warm glow from your house. Now, she sat on your couch, wrapped snugly in a blanket, her clothes hanging to dry in the bathroom. With the power flickering from the storm, you lit candles and started a fire in the fireplace. The flickering flames created a cozy atmosphere, and as you both shared stories, the outside world faded, leaving just the warmth of the moment and the comforting presence of each other.
