Ok rant moment.
Be me, in a humid country asian country; bad rains and all.
I'm a slight neatness freak (maybe).
This happened when I was in college, took some time to drop my laptop at a service center. It is rainy season, wear shorts and all so that I don't have soaked pants due to the diagonal rain.
I have dropped the laptop and am on my way back towards the train station, almost there. I actually do a terrific job of staying dry.
Then out of no where this lady came dashing and freaking out from behind as if the rain was only affecting her on the street. Mind you the street is wide enough, but she slightly bumps into me and does what Noa did with her umbrella, and had the audacity to look irritated as if I caused her an inconvenience. I took care not get soaked by the rain for like 2 hours, and now due to this lunatic I had to travel back home in public transport while being drenched. I had never wanted to punch the lights out of someone so bad, as much as I did that day.
Call it a "PTSD" trigger now, but I would lose it at Noa (or anyone else) if they did the bullshit that Noa does in this chapter.
