Summary: There are some things that can be faced alone. Christmas isn't one of them.
It was hard to focus amongst the crowd and the traffic clamor. I was tense as I always was these days when I didn't have a planned line of retreat, and I made myself walk slow and measured, counting my steps. My white leather city shoes whispered on the asphalt, as far from combat boots and the sucking, stinking swamp as they could get.
