In my memory, this snow was the heaviest I had seen in Kunming, and Heizi agreed, but the snow Heizi remembered most was the one in 2013 in Kunming.

That day the snow was not heavy. Heizi invited a few friends to take photos of the snow scene on the top of the Western Hills. From a distance, they saw a group of people having a snowball fight. As soon as Heizi and his friends parked and got out of the car, a snowball hit Heizi. He saw a beautiful woman smiling and waving at him, probably saying sorry. Heizi bent down, grabbed a handful of snow, and threw it hard at the woman.

That day, Heizi's group and the woman's group had a great time. The woman seemed more willing to throw snow at Heizi, and Heizi felt the same.

Around lunchtime, Heizi thought he should ask for the woman's phone number. Just as he said the first sentence, "What's your phone number?", the crowd was noisy and the woman couldn't hear clearly, so she asked, "What did you say?" Heizi was about to ask again when he saw a chubby little boy running toward the woman, calling "Mommy." The woman squatted down, picked up the little boy with both hands, stood up, and spun around. Heizi's words came out: "I said, today's snow is really nice."

That snow was really nice.
