The Couple In The Snow

The man and the woman, walking there husky in a snowy feild.

Script Writing

A man and a woman walking a dog.

A small, thin woman, with long blond hair, flowing down her back, wearing a thick looking black coat, with fur around the hood and bottom of the coat, her tight, blue genes clunk to her figure, tucked into a pair of black boots. She was holding hands with a tall, thin looking man, with brown hair curled against his kneck and forehead, damp from snow. He wore a long, knee length black coat, with many buckles and pockets. His black geans hung over his black converses, Snow clung to the bottom of his shoes, and soaked the ends of his genes. A large, white husky with brown spots on its head and upper back, with a long fluffy tail.

 

The couple were walking and talking as they swung there held hands as they walked, watching the young, large dog run around happily in the snow, chasing the black crows and sniffing around. The man would watch his dog causiously, as it is young. As the woman watched him loveingly.
