Eventually Winter had to pick Summer up, because Summer sat down and refused to move. It was hard, but it was either that or leave her there and that was no option at all.

Occasionally there would be some other refugee. Sometimes one would try to talk to them. Winter didn’t know what to do, so she ran away, tugging Summer after her. Because if she made the wrong decision with the wrong person…

Summer eventually quietened. At that time, Winter felt like crying.

Behind them came more survivors.
