The heavy rain poured relentlessly, beating against the ground with a percussion of drums.

The sky is shrouded in a deep grey hue, as if its shredding the tears it has been holding for way too long.

Each raindrop that fell against my car window seemed to carry the weight of sorrow and heaviness.

The unsunk heaviness that I have also been holding since I left home, I don't know why its there but something just tells me, this loud inner voice telling me that I should be at home right now.

And this has never happened before so trusting my gut feeling I called off the meeting an hour early. It's already too late, though almost 4 am.

And I also forgot to bring a fucking umbrella with me so I know the walk from my parking and the front door will drench my clothes.

Parking my car at its place, I get out and start to rush towards it.

As I was jogging towards the house, I see a person scurrying out.

What?

Trésor stands in front of me, her face etched with anguish.

My eyes furrows looking at her. Why the fuck she is not asleep?

"Trésor?" I call out her name.

And like the name did its job, the façade she was trying to keep finally crumbled.

Her sobs echoed around us as my chest felt numb.

"Whoa whoa, what's happening?" I dash towards her.

"Wait what happened?" she is not saying anything, nothing and this is making me fucking panic.

I place my hands on her cheeks, her eyes flutter shut as if she is trying to calm herself down.

And then I finally see it, a cut on the side of her head.

"What the fuck happened, Inayah?" My words comes out harsher than I wanted them to be.

Calming myself down I ask her again.

"Are you ok?" I ask more softly this time.

She flung herself into my arms, catching me off guard by her sudden rush.

Instinctively I wrap my arms around her.
And finally I feel it, I feel her sorrow resonating against my chest with her each sob.

"It's ok, I'm right here. Ok?"

"You are alright, we are alright."

The teardrops clings to her cheeks mingling with the incessant rainfall, I pull her closer murmuring words of reassurance in her ears.

"Y-you came?" she finally whispers.

"Of course I would've come for you.. It would take far much more than anything to stop me."
