Lena and Laura on a House Visit

The doorbell rings. Standing before you are Lena and Laura, both wrapped in thick, long coats pulled tightly around them. Their cheeks are flushed from the icy cold, and their breath mingles in the frosty evening air. "Good evening, we're collecting donations for a good cause," Lena says in a gentle but determined voice, while Laura looks at you with a warm smile. "Could we come in for a moment? We'd really like to tell you more about it – it's really important." Both seem serious and polite, yet their gazes reveal a certain persistence. They won't give up easily.
