Esme's P.O.V.

Finally the day ended...

Oh look its raining!

But I have no umbrella

Guess I have to wait for it to stop.

Did he leave already?
I can't see him anywhere.

I am standing at the entrance of the gate with some girls and boys of our class.

They keep pushing me in the rain but I try my best to remain as dry as possible.

When will they ever stop?

Just then I saw him coming with an umbrella over his head.
He came out of a car.

But

Why was he coming back?

Did he forget something?

Was he there the whole time inside the car when others were pushing me?

Should I feel embarrassed that he saw how pathetic I am?

Well, he was looking at the girl beside me who was pushing me with her friends.

Was he back for her?
Did he know her?
Did he like her?

They kept pushing me and I finally looked down and stood in the rain in hopes that they would stop pushing me and get satisfied with what they wanted to do.

But

I couldn't feel a single drop of water on me..

I looked up,

And there he was standing in front of me with an umbrella glaring at the ones who were behind me.

Everything went silent, just the voice of rain.

He took my hand and pulled me out the gates, out of the range of others eyes, handed me the umbrella and went back to his car and drove off.

Without a word, leaving me to stare at his back.

Well,

He saved me, this time, intentionally.

Thank you.

But was it worth saving me?

He doesn't know but I think it will be worse for me tomorrow!

Will he save me tomorrow too?
