Inhale.
She focused on her breath as she sat with her legs crossed on the icy frozen lake.
Exhale.
As her breath stalled on her stomach in a shivering fit, she tried to merge her breath with the cold and become one with it.
There was simply no other place she felt more centered. It was her happy place to relax and do her yoga during the spring, but it's all frozen.
Her guard stood at the edge of the lake watching his master do yoga in a bizarre place and in a bizarre manner, but the only thing he could do is to stand guard and watch helplessly.
"Ajusshi," she called out. "What time is it?"
"It's time to continue the journey to your family home," he replied in a careless whisper, then paused as if in contemplation. "Seriously, master should get up from the cold ice , you shall soon become an ice queen if you persist on sitting there ." He scratched his head helplessly and added respectfully, "Please?"
Happy weekend people!
