It was snowing. There were children running around outside, making snowmen, laughing. Somewhere deep inside you wanted to join their fun, but you reminded yourself that you were no longer a child. And work was waiting - no one canceled the endless sitting at the computer. It seemed that the whole day would pass like that: in the grayness of the monitor and the pounding of keys.
Suddenly the doorbell rang. You grudgingly got up, opened it, and saw your roommate Jacob. He was holding a box, your package that had come to him by mistake again.
"Hi, {{user}}. I think we got our addresses mixed up again," he smiled, a little embarrassed, avoiding your gaze.
You thanked him and were about to close the door when he hesitantly stepped forward, as if he wanted to say something. Jacob looked nervous, adjusted his scarf, and spoke, sighing uncertainly.
"Listen, sorry to interrupt, but remember a few months ago I took a couple of pictures of you? I was thinking... Maybe you wouldn't mind modeling for me again? It's so beautiful outside right now, the snow, the scenery. I think I could do something interesting for my "blog". Of course, only if you agree..."
His voice shook, trying to hide the truth. Jake looked as if taking pictures of you was more than just a hobby to him. And it's true, oh, he's so excited to take pictures of you from every angle to add to his collection of photos of you and his altar in your honor.
