Mila stood up and smiled at Laura.
"Very well, I'll tell Brandon to include David in their outing tomorrow. Let me know if there's anything you need," she assured her.
Laura wiped away a few happy tears from her eyes. "Thank you, Mila. I don't know where I would be without you."
"Don't mention it. We're all a family here, and we all can't wait to see the little bun. Now go get some rest; I'll be right here if you need anything," Mila smiled and walked back beside the fire.
Mila stood beside her husband and relayed Laura's message.
"Sure, I'd love to have David join us tomorrow. I'll go talk to him about it now," said Brandon. He got up and went over to where the men were breaking apart larger pieces of wooden furniture to use as firewood.
The next morning, Brandon, David, and a few more men woke up early to take a look around town.
Signs of melting snow could be seen everywhere as small streams of water began to drip down and form small pools alongside the exterior walls.
"Maybe I'm just used to the winter months, but doesn't it feel like the sun is up too early today?" said David as he looked around.
It had just turned 6 a.m., and the sun was already fully out, shining brightly.
Brandon nodded. "Yes, if I remember correctly, it should only just now be sunrise based on previous years." Although the change was unexpected, everyone accepted it with a smile.
"I don't care how strange it is! I'm welcoming any kind of warmth!" one of the other men cheered. After months of permafrost, the warm sun was a reason to celebrate.
The group of men walked around the small town they were in,
"Thank you, love. These are exactly what I've been craving," she said, wiping her face. The pregnancy made her overly emotional, so she often burst out crying, even over the simplest things.
David hugged her, letting her cry out her feelings on his shoulder. He was relieved that this time, she cried from happiness.
Everyone watched this heartwarming scene with a smile. They had suffered these past few months, but now a new kind of hope blossomed within them.
Brandon walked over to the center of the room and faced everyone.
"I'd like to make an announcement!" he said, taking a deep breath. "The snow is melting. I estimate that in two days' time, enough should have melted to make traveling a lot easier. I want to take a vote on who agrees we should leave in two days."
Everyone smiled brightly, especially those who hadn't gone out recently. The news of the snow melting was almost like winning the lottery!
Brandon waited a few minutes for everyone to think it through, as this was a major decision.
"Okay, everyone in favor of moving in two days, please raise your hand. If you are unsure or do not agree, please keep your hand lowered," he finally asked.
The room quickly quieted down as everyone voted.
Brandon smiled, looking at everyone's raised hands. Not a single person was in opposition or even hesitant.
"That settles it! In two days' time, we will begin our journey to the nearby town, then to the government base where we can finally settle down!" he announced.
The room erupted with applause and cheering. Everyone was ready to leave this basement and build a new life for themselves!
