Goodbye Summer

On A Rainy Day

Suzy POV

It started raining when we were on our way to the location of the show. I just met my supposed to be partner, Amber Liu. She was really nice and funny. I have heard a lot of good things about her not only from Min from my group since they were very close friends, but also from the other artist. Though l never had talked to her or had a lot of interactions with her before, l was seriously glad that l finally got an opportunity to know her better.

I was sitted in the middle seat, between Amber and one of the staff from the show. My head was filled with different thoughts about the show and l was nervous. It was raining and l was somehow relieved because l liked the rain. I enjoyed hearing its raindrops hit the window of the van and the chilly feeling. The smell of rain was also like a pleasing scent for me. Everything seemed fresh, solemn and at peace due to the rain.

When the van stopped, the others complained about the rain and that they would get wet. I remained silent since it actually didn´t bother me even the slightest. Suddenly l felt a hand poke my shoulder. I turned to face the person, only to be surpressed by Amber offerring me an umbrella.

"Here, come closer so that you won´t get soaked in the rain", Amber said warmly.

"Are you sure? The umbrella seems small for the both of us", l asked since l did not want her to be wet just because she shared her umbrella with me.

"Positive. And even if we do get wet, it is still better than walking without an umbrella.Right?", She reassured me and l just nodded lightly and went closer to her.

I was starting to feel calm and there was only a little sense of nervousness left. Having a nice partner made me think the show is going to be fine and fun. During our walk l realized that the umbrella was maybe not that small after all. I felt not one raindrop fall on me even once. Amber and l found out new and interesting things about each other. I also found out that she was one of those people who likes and enjoys watching the rain, just like me. She said it made her feel calm and relaxed even though she could not explain why. I told her not to worry, since it was normal and it was exactly the same for me. She also liked animals but she still was not that good in speaking Korean though l disagree. She may have spoken slowly, but l could clearly understand everything she was saying. And without even noticing, we already arrived at the location of the show. Everyone then started to go inside the house. l was also about to do the same thing but l was shocked when l saw Ambers´ left shoulder.

"Amber, your left shoulder is soaking wet", l exclaimed loudly. 

"It is nothing. Don´t worry. We should get in as well". she said calmly and gestured a hand towards the entrance of the house implying that l should go first and then she will follow.

"Wait, don´t tell me the reason l didn´t feel even a single drop hit me was because the umbrella was tilted more to my side the entire time?", l asked and concern was now evident in my voice. I understood she was nice, but letting herself be soaked in the rain bacause of me way out of the question. We were not even close yet.

"well...yes, l guess. I just thought it would be best if you didn´t get wet. Plus l really do not mind because l barely felt the raindrops fall on me", she answered with her charming smile plastered on her friendly face.

I then thanked her and returned the smile as brightly as l could. Her kindness made me happy and the fact that we shared somethings in common. I felt comfortable around her although l didn´t know her so well yet. 

We were now inside the house and started to head to a certain room. It was agreed that we should rest first before continuing with fthe filming. A very nice old lady also joined us in the room. She was very fond of Amber and now they are sleeping beside each other. Amber used one of her arm as a pillow and l lied down beside Amber. 

My gaze landed on her face. She has strong female features but she also looked manly at the same time. Her body was very well toned but she had a very smooth milky white skin. I could not help but admire her beauty.

Her beauty alone was not what made her interesting and unique. Saying l started to like her because of her looks is being superficial. What drew me to her was that she was very kind and approchable to everybody. She was very considerate towards me, who was practically a stranger to her. Her actions were also manly and similar to that of a gentleman. I could say her future lover would be so lucky to have her. 

With all that thought running in my mind, l didn´t even realize that Amber was already staring back at me. I suddenly felt my cheeks heat up a little and l could tell l was also blushing, not sure if it was out of embarrassment or something else. She smiled at me and l quickly turned my body to the other side to look at anything but her. If there was a perfect time to melt due to embarrassment, that would have been it.

Good thing it was still raining. It was silent and nothing could be heard except the sound of raindrops falling on the rooftop. I then strated to feel sleepy and in a split of a second my eyes already closed and l was off to dream land.
