‘What’s wrong?’ Tom asked.‘It’s the snow,’ she said. ‘I can’t organize the snowflakes.’Tom wasn’t in love with her yet; he just had a crush on her, so he wondered why she’d want todo such a thing. But he got dressed and they went outside to look at the snow. Four inches had fallen.Everything was covered. The sidewalks weren’t cleared and people were walking through the snow,leaving trails behind them.‘I tried to organize them but I couldn’t,’ she said. Her eyes were full moons. She seemed to havestopped blinking. Tom didn’t know what to do.‘Just close your eyes,’ Tom told the Perfectionist.‘But I still see them,’ the Perfectionist told Tom. She started shaking uncontrollably.‘Why don’t we try this,’ Tom said.He motioned to his car. He helped the Perfectionist into the passenger seat. He started theengine, turned on the heater and brushed off the snow. Tom drove out of the city, into the country andstopped his car in front of a field completely covered in undisturbed snow. No animals or people –nothing but the wind – had been across it. Tom helped the Perfectionist out of the car. They stoodlooking at the field of snow.‘Can you organize these snowflakes?’ he asked her.‘They already are,’ she said. It was at that exact moment that Tom fell in love with her.
