It is autumn, and the leaves on the trees are turning brown and red. The air feels cool and fresh. A man is walking in the park. He is wearing all black – a black coat, black trousers, and black shoes.
He is walking two dogs. One dog is black, and the other dog is brown. They walk together along a small path next to a quiet lake. The water in the lake looks grey because of the fog.
In the distance, there is a large building, but it is difficult to see. The fog is thick and covers most of it. The man walks slowly and listens to the soft sound of the dogs’ feet on the wet ground. It is a calm, peaceful morning.
