Ethan woke up, followed by Elena, as they felt the coldness around the room.
The sudden chill sent a shiver down their spines, and they realised that the temperature had dropped once again.
They were currently sleeping in Grandpa Caldwell's unit, along with the others, as they had agreed to avoid the hassle of heating each unit.
Although the area was crowded with portable beds set up around the living room, they found comfort in being together.
Elena and Ethan then exchanged worried glances as they embraced each other.
They stayed in the guest room at Grandpa Caldwell's insistence, believing it would provide Elena and the baby with a good night's rest without disturbances.
"Wife, the temperature has dropped to -40 degrees Celsius," Ethan said, looking at the thermometer hanging on the wall.
Elena was stunned; the temperature had plunged from -30 to -40, a sudden drop of 10 degrees.
