Can’t Win Me Back

The skies started to turn dark.

Alyssa's dark hair was covered in a layer of snow.

As she stood alone at the foot of the majestic mountain, she looked tiny, fragile, and desolate.

"Ms. Alyssa, it's snowing.

Heavy snowfall is forecasted tonight." Elias walked to Alyssa's side.

Noticing the redness on her face due to the cold and the dull look in her eyes, he had a moment of realization.

He couldn't help but fee) a wave of sadness within him.

"It's getting late.

I suppose something came up for Mr. Beckett, and he's unable to make it." "Why didn't he inform me if that is the case?" Alyssa mumbled in a low voice as she gazed toward the darkness.

She choked back on her tears so softly that her grievance couldn't really be heard through her voice.

Elias slapped himself on his forehead.

"Ah, perhaps you didn't manage to receive Mr. Beckett's message? The reception at the foot of the mountain isn't quite stable.

You might have missed it.

Would you like to come to my office? You'll have coverage there." "Even if something came up...

How could he stand me up?" Alyssa's eyes were reddened.

The cloud of mist she exhaled, and the moistness in her eyes blurred her vision.

"How could he do that? We've agreed to meet..." "It's just a hike.
