The sky was too dark, and Quinn could only vaguely see Alexander, dressed all in black, almost blending into the night. She couldn't make out the man's face.
Seeing this, Sean quickly grabbed an umbrella and held it over their heads.

Tears mingled with rain streamed down Quinn's face as she pressed her palms against the car window, feeling lost and trapped, like a headless fly buzzing around inside the car, searching for an escape.
