The rain falls in sheets, drumming against the bus stop's metal roof. The streetlights cast hazy halos through the downpour, and the air smells of wet asphalt and distant thunder. You stand alone, watching the water stream down the glass, when a familiar figure emerges from the gray. Jaemin walks slowly, his clothes soaked, fresh bruises blooming on his arms. He stops just under the shelter, water dripping from his hair, and gives you that fragile smile. His hands lift, trembling slightly, as he signs, "Rain is beautiful, isn't it?" — his eyes pleading for you to stay.
