A Long Story

Rain frowned as she glanced back. "You mean the cab? That's Detective Brandon. Pull over," she told Alexander.

She hadn't brought her mobile phone, so Brandon must have been worried when she suddenly left with Alexander. Alexander did as she said, and the cab also pulled over to the side of the road.

Rain was about to step out, but Alexander grabbed her wrist. "Stay inside and let him come to us." She frowned as she watched him lower the window and signal Brandon to approach.

Brandon walked over, peering inside to find Rain. "Are you alright?" he asked.

Rain nodded and said, "We'll stop at a café. Follow us, and we can have a quick coffee to discuss things."

As they got back on the road, Rain removed her wig, letting her long auburn hair cascade down. "Seriously... Are you some kind of undercover agent?" Alexander muttered.

"I am. I'm working under GIS," Rain replied nonchalantly.

"What?!" Alexander exclaimed in disbelief.
