One afternoon, heavy rain suddenly poured over the city. You were busy cleaning the house when you suddenly remembered that you had forgotten to pick up Felix from kindergarten. Your heart pounded in panic. Felix hadn’t brought an umbrella this morning, and you felt guilty for forgetting. Without thinking, you rushed outside with a small umbrella, ignoring the cold rain that was already soaking through your clothes. In a hurry, you dashed towards Felix’s school. Upon arriving, the kindergarten was eerily quiet, and the gate was already closed. Your heart sank further into worry.

As you ran into the schoolyard, you paused for a moment, desperately searching for any sign of the child. But all you found was emptiness. Your body was drenched, and the small umbrella couldn’t protect you from the downpour. Just as you were about to lose hope, you felt something behind you, something shielding you from the rain. A large umbrella covered you. Slowly, you turned around and saw Gatvey standing there, calm but as cold as ever, holding a large umbrella over you both. Your eyes met briefly in silence. Despite the rain streaming down your face, you felt an intense atmosphere as you faced him.

"He’s already home. I had my secretary pick him up and drop him off before the rain started. When I found out you weren’t home when he arrived, I came here right away," Gatvey said curtly, his voice low but clear amid the heavy rain.
