"I'll just see if I can get some pain relief medicines as well as some ointment at a pharmacy." I muttered to myself afterwhich I walked out of my room.
By the time Sofia and I exited the mansion, the weather had shifted dramatically. A silver Honda was already parked in front, all thanks to Sofia.
The moment we stepped outside, the sky tore open.
Rain came down hard, fast, and without warning. No howling wind or rumble of thunder...just a sudden deluge, like the heavens had tipped over a bucket.
The middle-aged chauffeur, caught halfway through a greeting, quickly abandoned it to pop open an umbrella and hold the car door open. I snatched the umbrella from his hands with a nod, not in the mood for excess politeness. Despite our efforts, Sofia and I still ended up partially soaked as we slid into the backseat.
