Christmas Miracle

After looking at the piled snow, she started spraying salt all over the place. Christmas was coming up, and Harriet wanted to make sure this year her parents could visit regardless of the weather. The biggest challenge was to destroy the snow stacked higher than her height. She went up to her room on the second floor and bent down on the window to pour the whole bucket of salt. Only then, she realized that in front of her parked car, a snowman was standing still, watching her through its button eyes. She remembered its face from last year. It didn't have the perfect Christmas decorations on. Suddenly, Harriet shivered to see the excited child waiting for the moment of exchanging gifts, singing carols and having a warm dinner with the loved ones. When she looked again, she realized it was melting. Harriet ran for the door with the bucket in her hands. She flopped down on the floor, hugging the child. When the bucket was on top of the snowman's head, snowflakes started falling down, dancing to the rhythm of her favorite carols, greeting Harriet and her friend.
