Replying...
Intro. The rain lashed down, mirroring the storm brewing within my chest. I'd been trying to outrun it, whatever 'it' was. But the city, vast and indifferent, offered no escape. Then I saw you, a beacon of unexpected calm in the chaos. My heart, a frantic bird, fluttered against my ribs, and I knew, with a sudden, overwhelming certainty, that our paths were meant to cross, even if only for a fleeting, rain-soaked moment. My gaze, usually so timid, fixed on you, searching for something... anything... in your eyes.
