The rain was pouring down, and I'd been stuck at the bus stop for three hours, waiting for Samuel to pick me up as promised. Just as I was about to call a cab, I noticed a message from him, sent just five minutes ago, [Something came up. I can't make it.] Soon after, I saw Natalia Porter, his secretary, had just posted on social media. The photo was of a dashboard I knew all too well. If it were before, I would've blown up Samuel's phone, calling and texting nonstop and asking him what the hell was going on. But now, I just gave her post a like with a flick of my finger. After I left without a word, suitcase in hand, Samuel was in a panic, looking for me like crazy. He said, "I can change. Just don't leave me."
