I take a few steps then turn around. “Here, take my gloves. I can get more.”
“Really?” he beams.
“Sure.”

“Thank you. This really helps. I’m out here on patrol.”
“Thank you!”
We wave and walk off, back to our car and then our warm dry apartment. The heroes stay at Liberty Plaza braving the elements to protest corruption, greed, and injustice.
