Two girls in the stairwell
Two girls in the stairwell seated on the stair, The warmest spot on this frigid January day. The building is frugally kept at hat-indoors temperature but the stairwell shares a wall with the heating ducts Their jackets still on and hoods up, heads together backpacks splayed at their feet. One holds the other girl's hand in hers A private moment I happened upon And decided to find another route
