She couldn't believe he would do that, but at the same time she couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about the whole situation.

The rain seemed to reflect her mood perfectly and she felt a sense of foreboding settle over her, just then her phone buzzed. She picked it up and saw that it was a text from Marcus her father's investigation.
