35. Rain
"Goodness!" Raeger exclaimed, looking up at the restaurant ceiling in alarm. "You can hear the rain on the roof."
"Yeah," Agate agreed, munching on some noodles. "It's raining cats and dogs out there."
The rain came down in sheets. It was falling so hard, one could barely see out the windows. Good thing Agate had brought her umbrella with her.
"You sure you can get back home okay?" Raeger asked, concerned. "I'd be more than happy to walk you home."
Agate smiled, waving her hand in disagreement. "Thanks, but no thanks. A little rain won't hurt me!"
To Raeger's relief, she had made it home just fine.
