For day_by_drabble's prompt: http://community.livejournal.com/day_by_drabble/16123.html a picture of rain on and through a window
"I didn't think you'd come," Beth said. "Not when it started raining."
"I was already on the way."
Beth watched intently as Gina poured the tea, blew into it, looked up at her over the rim of the mug. "Thanks," she said. "I really needed this. A day away from the office, not thinking about -- "
"Uh-uh," Beth said. "No using the U-word. Not today."
Gina smiled, and hooked a strand of damp hair behind her ear. Outside, the rain pounded against the window.
She wouldn't get a better chance than this, Beth knew, and she cursed herself for a coward.
