    Summary

    The snow was gone now, fading as they walked, melting into trickles that turned into streams and ran through pale yellow grass, slowly stirring with the first breezes of spring. Hank had forgotten how good it felt to be welcomed with a breath of life. “Here,” he said, pulling Connor to a stop. Crouching, he gestured for Connor to follow suit and put his hands over Connor’s, pressing them palm-down to the earth. “Feel that?”
