    The phone's blue light cut through the 3 AM darkness like an accusation. Outside my Tokyo apartment window, rain lashed against glass while inside, sweat soaked through my t-shirt as I watched Bitcoin's value hemorrhage.

    Rain lashed against the bus shelter glass as I squinted at the smeared timetable, my low vision transforming departure times into gray smudges.

    The sleet was hammering against my truck windshield like angry pebbles when the call came in – Mrs. Henderson's furnace had quit during the coldest night of the year. My fingers fumbled with ice-cold clipboards, spilling coffee on delivery manifests as I tried cross-referencing her tank levels with our ancient spreadsheet. That's when I remembered the promise I'd made to myself after last winter's disaster: no more frozen elders because of my paperwork failures. I tapped open Tank Spotter, my br - 
  
    My thumb trembled against the cracked phone screen as another garish betting ad exploded over my work spreadsheet.

    Berlin's midnight downpour felt like icy needles stabbing through my suit jacket as I stood shivering outside the abandoned conference center.

My throat tightened with that particular freshman panic that whispers: You don't belong here. When I finally stumbled into class 15 minutes late to 30 pairs of judgmental eyes, I - 
  
    Rain lashed against the kitchen window like a drunkard fumbling for keys as I stared at the soggy lottery ticket stuck to my fridge with a banana magnet. Tuesday nights used to mean driving through monsoon weather to that gas station with flickering neon, breathing in stale cigarette smoke while some guy ahead of me bought 47 scratch-offs. Tonight?

    Rain lashed against the terminal windows like angry spirits as I slumped in a plastic chair, stranded for six hours by a canceled red-eye. The fluorescent lights buzzed with the same monotonous dread as my thoughts. Every notification chimed like a funeral bell—another delay update, another drip in the ocean of wasted time.

    Rain lashed against my apartment window at 3 AM, the glow of my laptop illuminating panic-stricken notes about enzymatic pathways. My thesis draft read like hieroglyphics translated by a sleep-deprived squirrel. That's when my advisor's message blinked on screen: "Try Studentink - might unblock you."

    Rain lashed against the van windshield like gravel thrown by an angry god while I fumbled with three waterlogged notebooks. Mrs. Henderson's boiler emergency notes bled into Mr. Peterson's leaky faucet diagram - ink swirling into apocalyptic Rorschach tests.

    Rain lashed against the office windows like pebbles on a tin roof as I stared at my manager’s Slack message blinking ominously: "Emergency client call in 15. Mandatory."
