A stream of rain was splattering on the patio and then a bolt of lightning lit up the sky followed by the rumbling of thunder.
It was a clear sunny day this morning. No one had expected that it would rain in the afternoon. Elle and Sandy were about to take their lunch. They were now approaching the entrance glass door of their office building.
When they were finally out, Elle's eyes found Erick, who stood in the rain, staring towards her direction, as if he was waiting for her.
Elle's brows knitted in a frown. 'What is he doing here? Why is it he is just standing there, in the middle of the rain?'
"Sandy, go ahead first," Elle said before she walked towards Erick in a rush. She was holding an umbrella.
"Hey, Chief Lee! What are you doing here? Are you crazy? Why is it you didn't enter the building?" Elle scolded him but her voice was filled with genuine concern.
