Tell me about a time you got caught in the rain without an umbrella. What happened?

B Natural answer

A few weeks ago, I was biking home when I got caught in a heavy shower. I checked the weather earlier, but it had looked fine, so I left without an umbrella. When the rain started, I had to dash into a small cafe and wait it out for about twenty minutes. My clothes were wet, and I was a bit frustrated, but the people inside were friendly. I bought a hot tea, dried off, and went home once the rain slowed down.
