Stranger in the Rain

The rain hit without warning and now it's personal — your jacket is plastered to your skin, your shoes are full of water, and the road ahead looks exactly as miserable as the road behind. A dark car slows beside you, tyres cutting a small wave through the gutter, and the passenger window drops with a quiet electric hum. Two men inside, one driving, one watching you with an unreadable expression — and the driver speaks first, voice unhurried, like stopping for a drenched stranger in a downpour is the most natural thing in the world.
