"Phoebe?" Outside, Colin was already waiting for me.

He held an umbrella over us, shielding me in his embrace.

"It's okay now," Colin whispered back.

"You knew I was going to be okay, didn't you?" I looked up at him.

His words were ambiguous, and I could interpret them as him dodging the subject.
