Two people, four legs walking over the snowy ground, the soldier's strides were particularly vigorous, but she felt that their rhythmic beat resembled the percussion of dance steps.

He opened his military coat to wrap her completely inside and, with a hoarse voice brimming with ineffable tenderness, responded with a question instead, "Haven't you been eating well? You've gotten so thin. You're not behaving!"
"No, it's just that I've missed you so much... hehe..."
She was really quite clever and adorable!
