A Snowy Marriage (A Christmas agreement)

" How about we help each other?" He says and I look up at him, eyes still wet from the tears streaming down my cheeks, heart freshly broken from the public humiliation and betrayal that was Lucas's breakup. I can faintly make out the first droppings of snow floating magically under the light of the street lamps. It's that time of the year, a time for wool coats, a time for relaxing, none of which I'll be doing. "I'm an orphan with a wicked aunt and a boyfriend who left her because she has nothing to her name, how could I possibly help you?" I say another sob escaping my lips. "Marry me" he replies and my eyes widen in anger. Is he mocking me?. I look into the eyes of this stranger and see he's dead serious. "I need a wife, you need a home, marry me and you'll have all you want". I nod.

Superstition is a very common theme. For example, beliefs in witches, hexes, and the evil eye are often part of these stories. Another theme is the connection to the land. Since the Pennsylvania Dutch have a strong agricultural background, things like haunted farms, cursed fields, or malevolent spirits in the woods are common. The third common theme is family curses. Stories might tell of a curse that has been passed down through generations, causing misfortune and horror for the family members.
