Seeing Kylian again messed up my mind. I lowered my head and said with guilt. "Ralph... I'm sorry, but I think it's going to rain soon. You should go back first before it becomes unsafe if it rains. We'll look at your drawings another day."Ralph nodded and said goodbye to me, took the umbrella that
