the bell rang
the last bell
and he shot up
out of his seat
out of the Science class
out of the school
out of the ordinary
he ran over to her--
rain poured over them both
--and he asked her
he touched her
"Why are you out here?"
she turned to him
turned with sharp, bright
hazelnut brown eyes
and motioned to his mouth
say it again
she seemed to be telling him
"Why are you out here?"
she laughed--no but it was a silent laugh
no sound
and she walked away
in the rain
