Rumble!
Thunder echoed in the air as rain poured down on the city.
It started raining on Vickyâs way back, and since she did not have an umbrella with her, she was
soaked from head to toe.
She hurried into the bathroom for a hot shower, and it was not until after the shower that she
remembered she had forgotten to bring a change of clothes.
There was only one bathroom in the apartment, so all personal belongings that belonged to her and
Tyler had been kept in their respective rooms apart from towels and robes.
Her room was closer to the bathroom. Considering that it was only three in the afternoon and that Tyler
would not be home, it would not be an issue for her to run to her room.
With that plan in mind, she opened the bathroom door, prepared to make a run to her room.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, she saw Tyler walking over while taking his
jacket off.
He seemed to have been caught by surprise by the rain as well and was completely drenched. The
white shirt clung to the manâs well-defined muscles, revealing smooth and graceful lines that really
proved to be a tempting, bewitching sight.
Neither of them expected to run into each other under such circumstances and were both stunned.
Vicky snapped out of it after a moment and screamed, âAah!â
She instinctively ran back into the bathroom, slamming the door shut behind her.
Tyler sobered and glanced at the bathroom door before returning to his room to change, finding his
pajamas to head into the shower.
When he stepped out of the bedroom, he noticed that Vickyâs bedroom door was open, and the
bathroom door was still shut.
It was clear that Vicky was still inside the bathroom.
He glanced at his watch and frowned before heading over to knock on the bathroom door. âHow much
longer are you going to take?â
Since Vicky headed out of the bathroom, it meant that she was done with showering. Though it seemed
normal for her to hide back inside out of panic, she had shown no intention of coming out.
After a long silence, she said, âI⦠I forgot to bring my clothes in.â
Since Tyler was back, she dared not to leave and could only stay inside the bathroom.
She was on the brink of putting her soaked clothes on.
âAlright,â said Tyler before heading into Vickyâs bedroom to bring her a fresh change of clothes.
Shortly after, he knocked on the door again. âI brought you your clothes.â
There was no response.
Tyler hated being soaked in rain and desperately wanted a shower, so he was beginning to lose his
patience. âWhatâs there to be shy about? Iâve already seen every inch of you there is to see.â
ââ¦â His words made it even harder for her to open the door.
He stood still and gave her a final ultimatum. âOpen the door, or Iâm coming in now.â
After a few moments of silence, the door was opened, and a slim, pale arm reached out to snatch the
clothes off Tylerâs hand.
â¦
Neither of them mentioned a word about the awkward encounter, and though Vicky felt embarrassed,
Tylerâs composure was contagious.
She quickly found a way to forget about the event.
One night, Vicky glanced at the clock and noticed that it was half past eleven at night, so she gave
Tyler another call while sitting on the couch in the living room.
