---- Outside the flickering sign of Nightfall Bar, a few dying bulbs buzzed and blinked weakly, threatening to go
out at any moment. Across the street, Olivia rested her chin on her hand, gazing out from her family's small food
stall. Rain had been drizzling since dusk, soaking the narrow alleyway. She thought, 'The weather's awful tonight.

crossed her mind, a tall figure stepped in through the rain, closing a dripping umbrella. It was Andrew, dressed
all in black.
