Rain returned but what he saw plunged his heart into icewater. Did she hate him so much? Did the impulsive kiss make her feel so sad? Did she have someone in her heart?

One quiet night was a sweet remedy for broken hearts, a lovely melody for desolate minds. It was like a beautiful song played on a flute, soundless notes floating in the air -- sad, soft, lasting but always unreachable.

"What's wrong? You're acting like you tried to put a move on Annie last night and she brushed you off." Edward just said it in passing and didn't mean to tease Rain. But apparently Rain took it seriously, widened eyes fastened on Edward, wondering how Edward could know he had kissed Annie against her will last night. Could Edward read his mind?
