The sky seems gloomy. Who would have thought that something as colourless as water could make clouds so dark. It has started to drizzle now. I tried to rub condensed water droplets on the glassy wall of the store that I just bought food from, to get a clear view of the busy street ahead.
Soon it will turn into an endless music of droplets hitting window panes, rooftops and tree-leaves; just like an old radio coming to life.
For young couples, it's an occasion to express their love. For elderly, it's a bitter sweet memory but for me it's just a wet playground. I hate the rain, i hate it with my whole heart!
I just decided to go back home under this heavy rain, i don't have the energy to walk, but I dont have the energy to stay there as well.
I don't get it? Why do people love rain?
I feel like I have acid rain in my brain! And it's killing the flowers inside of my heart..
I shoved my hands in my pocket as i saunter in the soft rain, small pellets of water spitting on my hands as remainder of the drops quench the scattered puddles that decorate the asphalt.
I'm trying my best to ignore those stupid memories, but..
It's hard!

"I'M DONE, I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE"
Mom yelled, she had scary red eyes, scary voice..
She was SCARY.
Dad just stared blankly at the women, i couldn't read anything in his eyes.
"It would have been kinder to kill me!" He suddenly yelled.
He continued with a weak voice " You said you loved me and I took you at your word. You said you'll accept me just like i am and i believed you. Then one sunny day, under a cloudless sky, you announced you were in love with someone else? I-is that what I really deserve"
"You don't know how it was. You just like to judge me. Have you any idea what I did for you? Any idea at all? All I wanted is a nice life, do you understand? I don't want someone who can't even efford himself food! I want a nice life! "
She started crying "J-just l-let me free"
My father broke his gaze, preferring instead to rest his eyes on the street behind, on any passing car. Then he spoke with the same voice "what about our kid?" Then he turned back to her.
"I-you take the responsibility, i had enough!" She responded. Her voice was shaking as her eyes met mine for the last time.
I broke a little more inside - the pieces becoming shards.
"But" dad said
"No, no but, it's over." She slowly turns away, trying to hide the sadness in her eyes.
"I guess it is," he gulped down a sob and tried to control his breathing, as she walked away.
My heart breaked into little tiny pieces; tears of sadness blur my vision. I want desperately to call out to her, beg on my knees to come back, b-but... She is gone.
My father star-

I arrived to home!
I knocked. First time, second time, third time, fourth time?
I went to the garden of the house and took an old key that my father had hidden in small pot among the dense plants.
I opened the door, my dad was lying on the couch, he looked pale.
I decided to wake him up since he needed to eat!
As I approached my father, I spotted a medium-sized piece of paper on the table, it seems that my father wrote it before he fell asleep!
I took the paper in my hands and started reading.
"Dear Anna :
I know that this is a difficult time for you, i know, i really do. But please, just know that I really love you, i love you with my whole heart. You are beautiful and capable. Please never let people decide who you really are, you made some small mistakes in your decision, but I know that you can find the right. Love you! Whenever you feel alone look at the sky. I'm there somewhere looking proudly at you! Sorry for leaving..."
"Leaving? Wait what's going on? Dad wake up!"
