However, when we were about 4 (leave) the store, the rain started to pour down and the streets 5 (cover) with water within minutes. I noticed a young Chinese couple 6 (stare) at us when we came to a crossroad and were waiting for the light to change 7 (anxious). I figured they were probably wondering 8 a pregnant foreigner was taking her little kid out through the rain. But as we crossed the street, the woman offered me her umbrella.
