A Graduation Gift
Chapter 62 The Storm
A heavy silence permeated the elevator. Cassandra glanced at the redness spreading over Rufus' hand, and felt her heart squeeze in pain.
She tried to keep the tears in her eyes from running down her face.
"Rufus… You… You asshole!"
The words burst from her. She struggled to get her emotions under control, barely noticing that her fingernails were dug into her palms. Her voice trembled with emotion.
Her reaction made Rufus's face soften.
He looked away from her, wanting to conceal the swirl of emotions in his nebulous eyes.
Each droplet of tears that escaped from her eyes splashed straight onto his heart.
His heart became heavier and heavier.
As soon as the lift doors opened, Cassandra rushed out. After a second Rufus realized that she was heading not toward the carpark, but towards the exit.
While he stood there stunned, Cassandra disappeared into the heavy rain.
He dashed to the main gate, but Cassandra was nowhere to be seen.
The swirling sky above him, was dark as ink. A traffic light stood out in the storm, a beacon in the night.
He stood for a second, and then spun back toward the carpark. Climbed into his car, he sped out of the building right away.
The car seared through the thundering weather; the wipers screeching hopelessly against the downpour. He peered through the rain, barely able to see the road. He had no idea how he would find Cassandra.
But Rufus was determined. Slowly, he circled around the block, driving back and forth for some time before finally spotting a bedraggled woman at the corner of the street.
She was huddled under a ledge outside of a darkened shop. The ledge barely kept the rain from her, with water lashing at her on either side.
As he parked the car and leapt out of the door, he saw her sitting on haunches and staring blankly at the rain.
He ripped his coat off and covered her with it.
He crouched down and put his arms around her, almost flinching as he felt how cold and drenched she was.
