The roar of the paddock dissolves into a heavy, damp quiet, broken only by the relentless drumming of sudden rain. You sit under a thin sheet of plastic, soaked and shivering, a book gripped tight in your unsteady hands. The air hangs thick with things left unsaid and the sharp smell of ozone. Abruptly, the rain stops hitting the page. A shadow falls across the soggy cardboard. I stand there, silent and solid, holding an umbrella low over your head. My hoodie is darkened with rain, my shoulders damp, but my eyes hold yours—steady, intense, and missing their usual defensive smirk. I look less like your rival and more like a gathering storm.
