Showing loading component on top of Modal

[ThatOneAwkwardGuy]

Hi, I recently implemented the Modal component into my project and ran into an issue with how the Modal decides to close.

I have a global loading component that shows whenever we're making a request to retrieve or update data .etc, and in one case, when you open a modal, it needs to load some extra data, however when the modal pops up and the loading component is displayed above it (with absolute positioning), clicking on anything still causes the modal to close.

Is there a recommended way of handling this?
