A girl is laying on her bed watching a movie. Suddenly, she hears sounds on the roof. Tap. Tap. Tap.

She is bewildered. She pauses the movie to listen deeply. The sounds continue. Tap. Tap. Tap.


Haha. Is this true? Could it really be true? She rushes outside. The sounds continue. Tap. Tap. Tap.

Initially, she had been infuriated. The weather was harsh. The heat was terrible, not to mention the dust. 

She had passed a compound where she overheard people screaming at a woman to stop, just stop.

Curious, she had asked bystanders to know what was going on. Well. Well. Well. What do you know?!


The woman in question bathed her child almost every 30minutes. Her excuse was that the child sweated.

Neighbors were scared that at that rate, the child might actually fall sick. She had been speechless. 

As she gets outside, a chilled breeze embraces her. Oh my God! That was it. It was finally happening.

The frenzy she went into, you can only imagine. You would think she won an award or scholarship.

It was raining. The first rain of the year. The rescue from the cruel heat. This was good. So good. 

In other news, happy new month.
