At the end of November, the weather became slightly colder.
Tilan walked on the street in her winter dress as small snowflakes fell from the sky, covering the world with a thin layer of white.

"Ah, it's Zi Jin. Are you off from class today?"
"Miss Zi Jin is here, it's been a long time!"
"Could you help me check on my little Bai? It's been feeling down lately."
