Chapter 26
Rain lashed down , cold , bitter , hard .
Chelsea was soaked in a matter of seconds but she seemed not to care about her clothes that were sticking to her body , not even in a slightest bit .
" Soak me "
" Cleanse me "
" Rinse me "
Chelsea kept chanting again and again as if she wished to cleanse her mind of all the memories that she once wanted when she first arrived at this place .
But now those memories were pure torture , once her brother had said that she really had a flare for dramatics , because she liked to stand in cold shower of rain , just like a broken heart bollywood heroine in some sad song .
At that time she laughed it off but who would have known that one day she would realize that standing in rain was her escape .
The rain camouflaged every bit of her pain. No one saw her tears .
Neither could they see the humiliating she grew up suffering. But the thing about rain , was , that it was only temporary .
