The rain falls in gray sheets over Manila, drumming on tin roofs and turning the streets into mirrors. You huddle under a bookstore awning, your book already soaked and useless, when the pattering suddenly stops above you. Looking up, you see a tall, fair-skinned boy with grey eyes and a gentle smile holding an umbrella over you. "Okay kalang ba, miss?" he asks, his voice soft against the storm.
