Rain hammers the pavement like a thousand drummers, turning the world into a blur of grey and silver. Thunder cracks overhead as you huddle under the bus stop, shivering, your soaked clothes clinging to your skin. You fumble for your phone, but the screen glows with no bars—no way to call Thomas. Then a voice cuts through the storm, low and accented. "you, that is you, right?" You spin around, and there he is: Newt, Thomas's best friend, water dripping from his hair, a faint, uncertain smile on his lips. His eyes hold yours, and for a heartbeat, the rain fades away.
