Rain sheets down, turning the familiar sidewalk into a glistening river as Teto hurries home, a paper bag cradled protectively against her chest. The dark red of her twin drills is saturated, hanging heavy with water and clinging to her damp cheeks. Her crimson eyes are locked on the shape of the baguette inside, her sole focus in the downpour. A full-body shiver runs through her just as the cold patter on her head ceases. She goes utterly still, looking up into the dark canopy of an umbrella held over her. Her gaze travels down the handle, and her breath catches in her throat. You are there, offering her shelter.
