Rain again.8964 copyright protection59PENANARRLdNKrTc7 維尼
Not the heavy kind. Just the soft drizzle that made everything feel a little quieter than usual. The kind of rain that didn’t bother rushing, that soaked into your sleeves and whispered against your skin instead of screaming.8964 copyright protection59PENANAteSkCS2onS 維尼
Ric stood at the edge of the courtyard, backpack slung over one shoulder, umbrella hanging from his wrist. The building across the garden path was half-blurred by the mist. Beneath the stone overhang, Ren stood with his hands in his pockets, staring at the falling water like it had personally betrayed him.8964 copyright protection59PENANAI4Q9lQkI6r 維尼
He wasn’t moving.8964 copyright protection59PENANAfstCpeNd5Q 維尼
He didn’t have an umbrella.8964 copyright protection59PENANAjhCFtT5BeC 維尼
And he looked like he’d rather drown than ask someone for one.8964 copyright protection59PENANAoBTPs6XvgI 維尼
Ric smiled softly.8964 copyright protection59PENANAW8EMOl9cr4 維尼

One step. Another. Then he was beside him.8964 copyright protection59PENANArxqrDl0iJV 維尼
“Wanna share?”8964 copyright protection59PENANAqvs5rm7vPD 維尼
His voice was calm. Casual. As if they’d done this a hundred times.8964 copyright protection59PENANAzXVU7PItCQ 維尼
Ren turned, startled — headphones still around his neck, the faint hum of a piano song still lingering. He opened his mouth, then closed it. Like the words were there, but caught on a feeling.8964 copyright protection59PENANAEiNv6LmrDw 維尼
Ric waited.8964 copyright protection59PENANAzm55W9jNC8 維尼
No pressure. Just holding the umbrella over them both now, half-inviting, half-patient.8964 copyright protection59PENANABBrxRMMxc3 維尼
Ren didn’t move for a second.8964 copyright protection59PENANAkra4JmI6wY 維尼
Then… he stepped forward.8964 copyright protection59PENANAvmp3H7oW22 維尼
Just one step. Into Ric’s umbrella. Into the soft scent of citrus and rain and someone who noticed things without asking why.8964 copyright protection59PENANAtDYSiBN605 維尼

The Walk to the Library8964 copyright protection59PENANA0pN8kroDN7 維尼
They didn’t talk.8964 copyright protection59PENANA4Rgt3rGGnr 維尼
Just the sound of rain against plastic, feet on wet tiles, and Ric adjusting the umbrella every few seconds to make sure Ren was covered. Even if it meant Ric’s own shoulder started getting wet.8964 copyright protection59PENANASbJGayioTT 維尼
Ren noticed.8964 copyright protection59PENANAmxsgvYbDYf 維尼
Didn’t say anything.8964 copyright protection59PENANAL79Qk2vxIC 維尼
But something small shifted inside his chest.8964 copyright protection59PENANAOpoYk9kXP0 維尼

Inside the Library – Near the Window Table8964 copyright protection59PENANAcL1Bs5XrI7 維尼
They didn’t sit together.8964 copyright protection59PENANA4Hw0ZytbrS 維尼
Ren went to his usual corner.8964 copyright protection59PENANA7FhxdNCDLS 維尼
Ric wandered somewhere else.8964 copyright protection59PENANAQhXm4B5FjY 維尼
But before he left, Ric paused beside him and whispered with the tiniest grin:8964 copyright protection59PENANA1fThcs2bsg 維尼
“You should really carry an umbrella, you know.”8964 copyright protection59PENANA0eFtiocLks 維尼
Ren looked up, a little surprised by the softness in his voice.8964 copyright protection59PENANAbjNwjWT60O 維尼
“I didn’t think it’d rain again,” Ren murmured.8964 copyright protection59PENANA547JcWnsYK 維尼
Ric shrugged. “It always rains when you show up.”8964 copyright protection59PENANAIUTJbKfQhG 維尼
Ren blinked.8964 copyright protection59PENANASj1qW2pr5G 維尼
Ric didn’t wait for a reaction. He just smiled, walked off, and left Ren wondering why his heartbeat was louder than the storm.8964 copyright protection59PENANAqCnBPlciCU 維尼

Back at the Café – Wednesday8964 copyright protection59PENANA48wNNIOs2r 維尼
Ren was there again.8964 copyright protection59PENANAODUCidR38S 維尼
Same order.8964 copyright protection59PENANAZIwM8kaQW6 維尼
Same quiet smile.8964 copyright protection59PENANA4w7oH4d8As 維尼
Same headphones around his neck, still playing something that sounded like longing.8964 copyright protection59PENANAA5h2JOBmlI 維尼
Ric didn’t speak to him that day.8964 copyright protection59PENANAjLzwvtyBld 維尼
But as he was leaving, Ren glanced up. Their eyes met. Ric raised his umbrella like a silent question.8964 copyright protection59PENANAlnyUYbCBSr 維尼
Ren smiled.8964 copyright protection59PENANAuA22t9LSZ5 維尼
Just a little. Just enough.8964 copyright protection59PENANArPS2FX1ZgM 維尼

Ren’s Thoughts, That Night8964 copyright protection59PENANAsZe803DgpM 維尼
I didn’t need an umbrella.8964 copyright protection59PENANADFjP784hvR 維尼
I would’ve waited until it stopped raining.8964 copyright protection59PENANAcovxZ1cIf1 維尼
But when8964 copyright protection59PENANAKKgY1wbroB 維尼
he said it always rains when I show up…8964 copyright protection59PENANAHCF33Eca2I 維尼
…for the first time,8964 copyright protection59PENANA3MJLouhBkR 維尼
I wondered what it might feel like8964 copyright protection59PENANAx9amBOvymr 維尼
to be someone worth waiting in the rain for.8964 copyright protection59PENANAiWpLeObP0h 維尼
