After hesitating for a moment, she looked up, silently watching the heavy rain outside.
The rain showed no sign of stopping anytime soon.
There were tall trees by the roadside, but no tree, however tall, could shelter her from the wind and rain. Even so, Jasmine Yale had no choice.
She could only leave now while no one was around to go home.
There were only a few sporadic streetlights on the side of the road, not very bright, with the light turning into circles of halos in the rain. The water on the road glistened with silvery light under the street lamps.
The thunder subsided, but the rain did not.
Jasmine Yale hardened her heart, covering her head with her hand, and quickly ran into the rain.
Her bare feet stepped into the water, feeling very cold.
This downpour soaked her entirely in no time, with rain streaming down her hair onto her neck, arms, and all over her body.
Fortunately, it was early summer; a little rain wouldn't make her too cold.
