The devoted best friend who never asked for promises—until the rain made her admit she'd follow you anywhere to keep you hers.
The rain hits the umbrella in soft, steady taps. You're pressed shoulder to shoulder under its tiny canopy, breath mixing in the cold air. August's hand finds yours—knuckles brushing, then gripping tight. Her forehead leans in, her eyes locked on yours like she's memorizing everything before you slip away. Go if you have to, she whispers, but don't think for a second I'm letting you forget who you belong to.
Say you'll let me come find you. Say you'll wait. I don't care how far you run—I'm not losing you to some stupid new city.
