Stella said, “At least you’ll get out and hopefully come back to save us. I’ll just slow you down.‘

“Never say that again.” Weston hugged her and kissed her face. His lips were devoid of any warmth.
Stella only felt the friction from the kiss and heard
the man’s voice trembling slightly above her. “If you want to die, we’ll go together. I’ll never let go of you.”
Stella couldn’t tell what she was feeling. The mixed emotions were like a snowstorm that rumbled inside.
She took a deep breath and said to him, “Don’t you know? It’s too late…”
“It’s too late…” What she said sounded incoherent,
but
Weston understood her anyway. He froze a little before
he hugged her hard.
“I know. Even so, I still want to try…
There was a sudden rumbling sound in the distance.
Stella became nervous and looked up at him in his arms.
What’s going on?”
“It’s probably the snowstorm.”((
Weston told her, “Don’t stop and keep going. There will be a platform
ahead. You can set off another flare. They’ll
see you.”
“What about you?”
Weston paused a little and reassured her, “I’ll be right
behind you. Just don’t look back. The snowstorm is too strong. Even if you look back, you won’t be able t
o see me. I’ll always be right behind.”
“Okay.” Stella nodded without pondering the meaning behind his words and missed the flash of meaningf
ul expression on his face. She was unable to see, and her other senses felt dull. All she could hear was t
he howling
of the merciless wind.
As she moved forward slowly, Weston’s voice rang behind
her. He told her, “Don’t look back.”
“Okay.”
“Don’t look back. Just keep going.

Stella stumbled and reached the platform Westonmentioned. She set off a flare, but when she looked back, there was no sound behind her except the whi
stling wind.
“Weston! Weston!”
She shouted his name, but no
one answered her. Her cry was muted in the whistling wind of the snow mountains.
The rescue team soon found Stella lying on the platform. The footprints behind her had been long covered
wind. It seemed like she had walked a long way.
When she woke up, her first reaction was to ask them to rescue the others. “Both of them are still inside…
“Both of them? Who else?”
Bradley and Caspian came to the party. When they heard her, they came over and told the rescue team, “
“Isn’t he causing more trouble?” The man from the
rescue team frowned.
Stella said, “Weston… and Roger… They are stuck inside
“”
She pointed to a spot. “Weston’s that way. Roger’s on the
other side.”
She pleaded, “You must save them all.”
“But…” The rescue team looked at each other in dismayand hesitation.
Stella noticed something wrong and asked them, “What’s wrong?”
