Queenie pretended not to hearand focused on eating. Andrew stared at her with a warm smile playing on his lips. "I hope it's Queenie." I turned my gaze to Queenie.

Queenie loved steaks, especially the tender kind. She couldn't believe Andrew had noticed this after just a few days of hanging out.
Her reaction was intense, so I didn't dare to continue and quickly changed the subject. Andrew was a smart one. He immediately played along and chatted happily.
After dinner, Andrew diligently put on the apron and cleaned the kitchen until everything was sparkling clean. When he left, I was on the couch, happily waving him goodbye.
The door wasn't closed properly, so I peeked from the doorway. I saw Queenie accompanying him to the elevator. She said with her head bowed, "Andrew, I'm still in love with someone else. I think you shouldn't cover again." Andrew stood in the elevator with a disappointed look, but he flashed Queenie a smile. "I'm willing to wait." Once Queenie closed the door after coming back, she rolled her eyes at me. "You're so nosey, always meddling in other people's affairs." I grinned sheepishly and half-joked, "The shoe that fits one person pinches another, and there's no recipe for living that suits all cases." Queenie stood by the window quietly.
Soon, it started raining outside. The rain gradually grew heavier.

Before going to bed, I shared my feelings with Queenie. She didn't say anything for a long tbefore finally sighing.
"Luna, there are two sides to the moon. I used to feel the sway about Flynn, and it tooknearly five years to understand his true nature. It ended in nothing but pain. "I'm not brave enough to waste another five years on figuring out someone else, especially someone much younger than me. I just don't see how it'll work." She had a point, and I didn't know how to respond. We couldn't force a relationship. Only twould reveal one's true nature.
The heavy rain lasted all night. The next morning, we found the city submerged in water, and several cars floated on the flooded roads.
Our neighborhood was relatively low-lying, and with the sudden heavy rain, the drainage system couldn't handle the amount of water pouring in. The flood reached our thighs, and the rain showed no signs of stopping.
Queenie's wardrobe consisted of long pants and long dresses, none of which were suited for the weather. I found her sdenim shorts and slippers and packed her favorite long skirt in a waterproof bag. With an umbrella in hand, I escorted her to the gate. X
