February

In the near future, in a cold February morning, the two sisters excitedly wear their coats after seeing their elder brother's arrival through the window. He, who is deeply in thought, takes them to a place outside the town and stays in the car while the girls are pouring water on the ground and creating something in the form of a man.
The brother comes closer after some time and takes out a carrot from one of his pockets and makes a gesture meaning ''the carrot goes to the nose''.
The girls wear both the carrot and their beanies and scarves on the mud man they have made. Since it doesn’t snow even in a conventionally cold city like Erzurum in February anymore, they have had to resort to such an alternative.
