[text ID: Listen. The rug is wet because I stood here. Because it started pouring. Because your door was open and I was under a tree. Because it was raining. Because the rain and tree both were in your backyard. Because so was I. Because you weren’t home. Because I knew you were bowling. Because I walk your road. Because your road goes by your house. Because I felt like a walk. Because it was going to rain. Because your door is never locked.]
