« なんで雨が降ったの?»
Raindrops descended from the sky, making her heave a sigh.
She lifted her umbrella and gazed at the vast stretch of blue.
Rain.
A beautiful word holding a beautiful meaning itself, in this world.
"I wonder why is it raining today...",she mumbled , plugging the earphones in.
Her connection to rain has been a long one.
It rained on the day she was born.
It rained on the day she had first joined school.
It rained on the day she had first recieved a prize.
It rained on the day, her parents had left this world.
Since that day, rain had instilled a deep fear in her heart.
As she walked , music filled her ears.
However, she was startled by the sudden touch around her arms.
Unplugging the earphones, she glanced to her right, at the boy who had wrapped his hand around her shoulder with a smile on his face.
Who is he?
He flashed a nervous laugh,"...can we walk together?"
Her introverted self was panicking inside.
"Hmm?!"
"Actually, I...",he seemed to be thinking hard.
He was handsome.
His wet black hair, with water trickling down his forehead slipping towards his sharp jawline, made her focus on his beautiful plump lips.
He was the epitome of perfection.
"I need to go to that coffee shop...but it started raining and I don't have an umbrella."
Weird boy.
"So...can we walk together?",he awkwardly scratched the back of his neck .
She awkwardly looked away with a nod.
Both of them began walking together, accompanied with the sound of the rain droplets hitting the ground.
"I am so nervous right now.",he mumbled under his breath.
"...w h y?"
"Huh?!"
"w h y a r e y o u n e r vous?"
"Ah...",he scratched the nape of his neck once again ,"I am...CONFESSING! yes...confessing to my crush today...at the cafe."
"O h."
They reached the cafe and so she paused .
He reluctantly, exited the space under the umbrella, letting his gaze meet hers,"...Thank you."
She nodded, breaking the eye contact.
A few moments later, he stepped into the cafe.
She tilted her head, watching his figure disappear into the cafe building.
The raindrops stopped hitting against the ground.
Closing the umbrella,she lifted her head up to stare at the clear blue sky.
Why did it rain today?
