Her face was feverish and wet. She couldn't tell whether it was from the rain or her own burning tears. But it tasted bitter and sour, just like her mood at this very moment.

'Sally, just cry as much as your want in the rain, ' she thought to herself. 'What perfect weather to vent your depression? At least no one can tell you are weeping hysterically now. Face it, you are a coward! Your armor had been ripped away a long time ago. You have nowhere to hide anymore. Just cry your heart out. But remember, after today, you need to pull yourself together, as there is nothing in the world you cannot deal with. Time will heal.'

The past haunted her. All the old, horrible memories flooded her mind. Sally could never forget her first year in jail, and how she had been bullied, belittled and tortured. She had sworn to herself that she would not give up her whole life for one stupid mistake. She held on to hope. Because of that woman, she knew she could pull through it. With no one else to rely on, she had to be strong, and brave and act decisively. However, her efforts were in vain.

the phone. He was reading from the old messages over and over again. At this moment, something precious tugged at his heart strings. The message seemed to burn his eyes. He had hoped that he hadn't missed anything from the phone. How he wished that she was here right now. He reached out in the air but there was not even an illusion of her.

Her words still rang a bell as she had messaged, "Addison, today's weather seems horrible. I think it might rain soon. Have you got an umbrella with you?" Since when did his eyes become wet? Sally's pretty face emerged in front of him, and she was giggling as she said, "Aha, how stupid of me! You don't need me to remind you of umbrellas, do you?"

He called out, "But I do need you and your care for me. Even though you seldom show your care, I still want it!"

A splendid smile crept across Sally's beautiful face. She looked like the prettiest flower of the whole summer. Wasn't this his sweetest dream or not? Sally walked up to him and gently kissed him on the cheek.
