[ IP ] Raining All Day

*The rain fell in a constant but random tapping patter above her. The woman slowly drew her finger down the window pane. The condensation parting as she slowly dragged her finger lower, the friction coming out as a low hum. * 
 
 `` Oh! There you are Sarah.'' A deep voice called out from behind her. Sarah just continued to look out into the woods of the rainy day, the gray bleakness beating on her from everything that had occurred. 
 
 `` Ah, come on,'' the voice prodded at her as she heard a chair scrape on the wooden floor as it was dragged across the room to sit beside her. `` I know the knowing of... well, not knowing, is heavy. But we have to stay positive about the situation. Look, I know you're not much of a religious person, so I ca n't give you the hullabaloo about all that jazz, but... I just want you to talk with me. I miss you Sarah, and... well I feel that if we talked this through, we can gain a battle plan and we'll beat this.'' Sarah felt an arm wrap around her shoulder and hug her. Feeling comfort in the words, she leaned her head against the man's chest. 
 
 `` I tell you what, step one of this battle against it will be cappuccino. And I know just the place that can make you up a great cup of it, my treat okay?'' The man invited her as she continued to lean against his chest. She could hear his heart beating, slow, calm, confident. 
 
 `` Yeah, okay.'' She agreed after a few moments of quiet thought. The rain pattering on the glass overhead. `` Let me just go grab my rain slicker.'' She pushed away from the bar, the wood scraping noisy on the floor as the pair left the porch. On the window, the condensation began to build back up and fog the window except for where the woman had rubbed on the glass, the oil from her skin acting as a repellent to the moisture. On the pane was a single word.
