Stuck in you

The host was right. The rain stopped before noon.

But when Rachel walked out of the conference room, the sky was still overcast.

It seemed that it would rain again at any time. Rachel had nothing to do, so she was thinking about whether to take a walk around or go back to the hotel and rest.

Since it might rain again, she decided to choose the latter. After all, she had no plan of strolling around under the rain.

On the other hand, Holley didn't hold back. She had already planned everything before coming here, so she wouldn't want to miss the opportunity to explore the place despite the bad weather.

Holley invited Rachel, but since they were not familiar with each other yet, Rachel didn't feel comfortable being with her. She felt like they had different personalities, so she would rather walk around by herself than be with her.

So while Rachel had decided to go back to the hotel, Holley and the others discussed where to go.

Rachel and Holley were going to live in the same hotel room, so she planned to said goodbye to Holley before she went to the hotel. However, Holley was busy talking with the others and didn't notice her.

She thought it wasn't necessary to bother them, so she turned to go to the elevator. But after taking a few steps, Holley asked, "Rachel, would you like to go with us?"

Rachel stopped and turned around. She shook her head and refused politely with a smile. "No, thanks. It might rain again, so I'll just go back to the hotel."

"Are you going to just stay in our room?"

"Yes."

Holley's face lit up upon hearing Rachel's answer. Then she said, "Great! You have an umbrella, right? Can we borrow it? If it rains later, we can't enjoy hanging around."

Rachel was stunned. She didn't expect that Holley would ask a favor from her.

Holley's eyes landed on her handbag as she pleaded, "Please." She even reached out her hand to Rachel.

A woman in the corner was eavesdropping on their conversation. As she heard Holley borrowing Rachel's umbrella, the corners of her mouth curved into a sneer.

She thought that Rachel would just give her umbrella to Holley. But she was surprised when Rachel said unhesitatingly, "I saw a supermarket next to this building. I think they are selling umbrellas there."

Holley's face turned stiff. At the back of her mind, she thought, 'How can she be so mean?' However, she just smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh, I see. Thank you for the information."

"You're welcome," Rachel replied politely. She then turned around and walked towards the elevator. Behind her, Holley and the others were whispering to each other.

Holley and Lea had the same last name, so Rachel couldn't help thinking about her best friend.

They hadn't gotten a chance to communicate with each other these days. So Rachel didn't know what had happened between Lea and Henry.
