Clutching the umbrella, she departed into the rain, fading away.

Raindrops seemed to pierce Leon’s chest, torment etched in every droplet.

Why!

A ceaseless cascade of ruin, depriving him of every blessing. Was isolation his sole destiny, devoid oflife’s sweetness?

A car’s hum permeated the air from behind, but he remained unmoved. Whoever approached, he paidno heed.

A figure alighted, an umbrella extended, shielding him from the downpour.

His gaze shifted, and saw Lois standing beside him.

“Long time no see,” Lois’ soft utterance resonated.

Rain-drenched heels splashed as she neared.

The umbrella’s shelter veiled them both, her attire surrendering to the wet embrace.

The morning arrived, and Marcus stirred.

Amidst his path, he encountered “The Memory Loss Brain.” Contemplation led to decision, and thebook met its end in the trash bin.

Millie awoke to an absence—her book had vanished.

Marcus had instructed the cleaner to dispose of the trash.

“My book, have you seen it?” Having scoured every nook, Millie turned to Marcus for assistance.

“No, I haven’t. Did you search the sofa?”

Upon hearing his suggestion, Millie retrieved a pillow from the sofa, sifting through it in vain for theelusive book.

“Did my book sprout legs and flee?” Frustration tinged Millie’s words as her quest proved fruitless.

Time pressed, yielding nothing, and she conceded defeat. She had class to attend in PreagendUniversity.

“Does anyone know the type of jade that this mineral can form?” asked the vice dean of the JewelleryDepartment.

He stood on the stage, poised and hands clasped behind his back as he looked at the students with anexpectant expression.

To his surprise, the class fell silent.
