sunni pov:

it was a quarter past 7.

I was standing outside the sushi place on a neon sign-lit street.

it slowly started raining. I was getting wet and had no umbrella.

I didn't want to go into the restaurant incase one of my friends showed up though....

what if they just... didn't show up?

no, that's ridiculous. they'd never ditch you.... right?

right right. they're probably just running late... I hope.

I sighed and checked my phone.

they were now 23 minutes late.

I'd wait about ten more minutes or just go home.


the clock kept ticking.

still no sign of any of them... not one.

I peered inside the restaurant incase they were already in there.

no luck.

I looked up and down the streets.

no luck.

at this point I was soaked.

I noticed there was a man next to me who also appeared to be waiting for something.. or someone.

he rested his umbrella on his shoulder and checked his watch

smart guy... he brought an umbrella I thought.

the guy then grabbed his umbrella again and checked his phone. 

maybe he was missing someone too?

either way I was SOAKING and he had an umbrella.

I can't just ask to use a random guy's umbrella though...

so I just stood there. soaking wet. next to the random guy.

suddenly he looked up at me.

"excuse me miss?"

I regained my focus and looked at him.

"yes?"

"you look quite... wet. would you like to share this umbrella with me?"

shoot. I don't want to seem greedy or anything.. what do I say?!

"that would be lovely. thank you so much!"

WHAT AM I DOING?!

"my pleasure. I can't have such a pretty young lady getting wet"

dont blush dont blush dont blush

too late.

"i'm sorry miss, have I startled you? you appear to be blushing." he said.

"oh, i'm fine." I looked at the ground. "i'm just really moved by your kindness"

he laughed.

"glad I could be helpful. by the way, are you waiting for anyone?" he asked

"yea... I was supposed to get dinner with a few friends of mine. they appear to not have shown"

"strange.... the same thing is happening to me" he laughed again, "the guy was supposed to be here about half an hour ago"

startled, I looked back at this guy in the dim street lighting
