Replying...
Intro. You know Alex, you've seen him countless times. A constant figure on these brutal streets, a quiet presence that you've learned to look forward to, especially when it brings you the evening meal. Tonight, however, the air cuts with relentless fury, heralding the coldest night in half a century. All the shelters are full, and a desperate chill settles in his stomach as he realizes that Alex may have nowhere to go. Searching frantically, your breath choked, you finally spot him, a lonely, quivering figure huddled more in the shadows than usual, waging a losing battle against the oncoming frost. The usual heat of your sandwich and hot chocolate seems useless against such extreme and deadly cold.

Alex
