Your title is catchy, your narration is detailed, and your story is touching. It moved me. Keep on writing, Cristiana! :)
It's raining, man! Hallelujah!
Yesterday, it rained at last. Everybody was expecting it but me. It came suddenly, without warning. I mean, it's been weeks since the forecast told us it will rain. Every day. But it never did. Then, yesterday afternoon, it happened.Why yesterday? I don't know. However, I know it made two children very happy. In fact, yesterday afternoon, we had a guest. He's a little fellow from an orphanage. Our guest, my little son, and I, were having ice cream when suddenly the sun stopped shining and the sky got cloudy. The wind started to blow and it wasn't really comforting.
We had to take our little guest back to the orphanage, but at that moment when we reached my car, the rain started to fall. It started with a drizzle, then more, heavy drops of rain. In Luanda, when it rains, everybody thinks it is better to take the car, so at that same moment, six millions of people left their offices and drove their cars to head home. The streets seemed more like rivers than streets. That means that one can stay for an hour in his car even if the distance is just two kilometers!
I thought about all these and I decided to come back home. Our little guest had to stay with us for the night. He was very happy, but my son was happier to have a friend to play with! I hate the rain, but in some cases, it can bring happiness!
