I just finished the final piece for Dior's Christmas collection. Doyou wanna get a hot chocolate together?

Its freshness made Aura smiled. She always loved the snow, andthe romantic winter of Paris.Oh my God, I miss my sweet home. Can't believe it, five years have alreadypassed. Yes, I'm coming to you now, New York baby! The cold air suddenly madeAura reminiscent of her hometown New York.The cafe was just 5 minutes walk down the road from her apartment. As Aurawalked down the footpath, she observed the many couples holding hands down thestreets.They make finding love look so easy! Aura thought, indignantly.
