It's snowing.
Christina watched the snowflakes falling from the boundless sky.
The magnificent buildings of the six-star hotel on the top of Sankt Moritz mountain were like a castle in a fairy tale world, which were beautiful.She looked at the large ski area on the right.
Many tourists, especially couples, were excitedly taking pictures.
And some were having snowball fights.
Crystal, whose cheeks were rosy, was busy pushing the snowman.
Chandler behind her mocked her for being childish but still helped her push it.
Charles, who was on her left, had just answered a phone call.She didn't know who called him.
Charles looked strange.He was nervous while answering the phone, but after hanging up, he looked smug.
Seeing that everyone was happy and cheerful, Christina moved up the corner of her lips and smiled gently.
She looked up at the snow in the sky and was lost in her thought.
Christina noticed that someone was pointing the camera at her.
She looked at it calmly.
The person holding the camera was a tourist from Italy, who was probably a photographer.
He smiled warmly at her and said in English that she was beautiful.
"NO, NO, NO!!"
A small figure ran over in a hurry.
Geoffrey was very dissatisfied with the foreigner.
He scared the foreigner away by saying, "Don't take pictures!"
Geoffrey looked sullen.
Although the foreigner did not understand what Geoffrey was saying, he probably felt the little guy's dissatisfaction.
He smiled at Christina and waved goodbye.
Christina had no objection to being taken a photo.She found that Geoffrey seemed to like following her very much recently.
Seeing what he had done just now, she thought the little guy seemed to be quite imposing.
"Aren't you going to make a snowman?" She said while pointing at Chandler and Crystal.
Geoffrey curled his lips and said, "It's so boring.No."
"Mrs.Hopkins, here you are.’ He took a thick scarf and reached out his hands high to hand it to Christina.
These scarves were from the hotel.
The temperature had dropped a lot since last night.
The service in the hotel was very good and many things to keep warm were placed in the lobby of the hotel, Christina squatted down and said, "I'm not cold"
Then she wrapped the scarf around Geoffrey's little neck.
With her clumsy hands, she found the scarf was too long and difficult to wrap around.
Geoffrey seemed a little nervous.
"I'm a boy.I'm not afraid of the cold"
Squatting down and wrapping a scarf around him, Christina looked earnest, with her eyes focused and clear.She wore a bright-red woolen coat today.
With her fair skin and long black hair, Geoffrey thought that Mrs.Hopkins was the most beautiful there.
"This is the only way I can wrap it for you.I'm not good at taking care of others."
Christina looked at Geoffrey's scarf which was wrapped in an ugly way and sighed.She really didn’t know how to wrap it.
Compared to Crystal, she was really not good at taking care of people.
"Mrs.Hopkins, you don't need to take care of me.I can take care of myself"
Geoffrey said it directly, with his little eyes shining brightly and his childish and innocent voice, "I really like being with you."
A child's confession sounded more like dependence.
Christina was shocked for a moment and said frankly, "I don't deserve your love."
"You can always be happy when you're alone.I want to be with you, and then I'm happy too."
Geoffrey tried to explain to her.
Maybe the logic of a child's thought was a little difficult to understand.
Christina just smiled, and she didn't understand.
