“There’s no shelter anywhere near us, Cece. Let’s just get home as soon as we can,” Sherry said.

“Alright, Mom. You should rest. I’ll take us home,” Cecilia urged.

“It’s fine. Just sit back there. I’m not tired,” Sherry firmly declined. She didn’t want to let Cecilia ride in her place as she knew how hard it was to ride a bicycle. under such weather conditions.
