*She continued walking in the rain with no umbrella to cover her from the heavy rain,

people started staring at her, but Lucy didn't bother to care.

her eyes started to be puffy and nose started turning red.

she couldn't stop crying*...

"young lady are you alright?, you can caught a cold from this hard heavy rain, would you like to borrow my spare umbrella?."

a kind helpful old lady approached her and offered her an umbrella.

"ah no no, it's alright I'm fine–"

Lucy refused the kindness.

"it's alright if you don't return it, I have my own umbrella shop."

*the old lady smiled at Lucy hoping she would accept her kindness.

but Lucy didn't want to own anyone, so she refused again*.

"I am really fine, thank you very much, but I'm in a hurry."

Lucy continued on walking the streets with the heavy rain,

her hair and clothes were all drenched in rain.

((what am I even doing?, where am I going?, I don't wanna go home.))

Lucy started to tear up again, and hurried her walk.

minutes of walking the rain still haven't stopped, and she was still in the cold streets walking alone.

she slowed down and decides to take her time.

and didn't cared about the people staring at her.

*then suddenly a stranger automatically covered her with his umbrella with no other words.

Lucy noticed the shadow from the umbrella was blocking her from the rain, so she stopped and turned her head back.

and saw a handsome man with a poker face*.

"Ah it's alright, I'm almost at my destination—"

Lucy tried excusing to the kind

man, but then he said-

" I'm not some kind of hero,

I just don't like seeing people in their desperate tears."

Lucy stopped in her feet, and looked back at the man.

((....how did you know I was crying?, when there was a rain?))

and what I didn't expect...

that you were the next man I'm gonna cry for.
