millie woke up with a sad feeling in her gut. a sad feeling she hadn't felt since the day.

of course, that feeling had gone away a very long time ago. but, she still felt it.

and today of all days, it rained.

and as the rain drops slid down the windows of millie's bedroom, the warm and salty tears ran down her cheeks, until she quickly wiped them away.

no more tears.

she got up and dressed herself in her favorite cozy black turtle-neck and a pair of ripped mum jeans. she threw on an old worn out pink floyd band shirt over her turtle neck to keep warm and grabbed a big puffy sweater to keep her extra warm.

she threw on an orange beanie and some light mascara, then she went down the long and narrow stairs of her humble home, greeting her mother good morning as she made herself a slice of toast.

she got on her shoes then sat on the couch, waiting for sadie.

a couple minutes later, there was a honk from outside and millie grabbed her backpack and keys and rushed out the door. she got in and saw sadie with her amber colored hair in two little braids covered by a black beanie.

"since when does it rain right after summer??" sadie said with a look of confusion. "since we live in atlanta." sadie laughter and dismissed her with a sarcastic wave of her hand.

she drove off and millie looked out the rainy window, sighing.

today is going to be a good. day.
no more being sad.

iris woke up with a loud beeping in her ear. "stupid comms." she mumbled, remembering that she forgot to take it out before she went to bed.

"could you repeat that please?" she said, trying to sound like she hadn't just woken up. the person on the comms let out an annoyed sigh, "i said, mr. grazer wants to see you, said he has a new mission for you or something." iris turned her comms on silent for a quick second and put her hands into fists and put her head back, groaning and taking a deep breath, then turning her comms back on.

"thank you. i'll be there in 5 minutes." she said through gritted teeth. then the comms went quiet again, and iris set it down on her nightstand.

she finally got up and out of her bed, walking over to her drawers to grab a pair of grey sweatpants and then getting a skin tight black crop top because she was too lazy to put on anything else— jack didn't care anyways, even though iris was a little scared of him and he pissed her off most of the time, they were very close at times and have known each other since they were small.
