Make It Rain

TWO

The sound of the thunder was loud enough to wake an already asleep Jimmy. Jimmy always loved it when it rained because of the cold that he'd feel and the sweet smell of cold dust that came with it. It was all so pleasing to him. Even though it never really ended well for him, he always drew open all his curtains whenever it rained or was about to.

It's about to rain again!

He jumped out of his bed in haste, rushing to quickly open the curtains. There was no way he would miss even the tiniest atom sized bit of cold if he was aware of it. He never really cared if his room got all wet.

"The maid will clean it after all." He always thought.

What a rascal!

There was a short stint of sound, metals rubbing as the rims holding the curtain railed across the curtain rod. Jimmy could see through the window, headlights of a car parked by the drive way in front of their house. His vision was a little blurred by the droplets of water on the window but he could identify his mother wherever he saw her. There was a rush of blood as he felt excited seeing his mother.

His tiny feet tapped their ceramic tiled floor as he rushed downstairs to his mother.

Couldn't he hurt himself doing that?!

Like Jimmy cared.

"Mummy!!" He yanked the door open

"Jimmy?!" Samuel exclaimed, letting go of Shola's hand as he threw his gaze to the door.

Wanting to reach out to him again, Shola stopped herself. What was she thinking? She had only met him for the first time, she couldn't have possibly fallen for him already!

No Shola! Put yourself together! You are a strong independent woman. Even though she felt a spark of electricity the moment she held hands with him she had to stay calm.

"Brother Sammy!!" Jimmy suddenly forgot his mum and rushed out to embrace his big brother who in return ran towards him with wide spread arms.
The two grabbed each other as Samuel raised his brother up swiftly

"How are you? Ha! Ha! Ha!" He held Jimmy at chest level, rolling under the rain with a very wide smile anchoring across his face.

"Hehe! Hehe! Hehe!" Jimmy enjoyed playing under the rain.

"Brother did you bring something for me?" Showing Samuel no mercy. Not unusual amongst kids, presents were always the first thing on Jimmy's minds when welcoming someone from a journey.

"Of course I did lad! But first, let's get out of the rain. Then I will give you something you never expected." Samuel carried his little brother inside.

For a second, he paused at the door, looking back at Shola who stood in the rain smiling at them.

"What are you doing Shola? Let's go inside!" Mrs. Akande ran past her, holding some of Samuel's bags in her hands.

They all rushed out of the rain into the warmth of the Akande family house. It was a very beautiful interior, with sparkling white tiles spread all across the living room and beyond. With a huge bright chandelier hanging at the center of the room, casting out colors, glittering in hundreds of different facets. And the brightness of its light filling the four corners of the room whilst emphasizing the beauty of the house.

"Wow!" Shola and Samuel exclaimed simultaneously.

In a short glimpse, she looked at Samuel and pinched herself. Control yourself woman!

Samuel looked at her, noticing she was trying not look at him. Wow! She even looked way better in bright light. Brown-ish long hair. Beautiful dark toned skin. And a slightly long, tasty looking neck. He noticed the wetness of her blouse as it stuck to her skin adamantly, revealing her red laced bra which featured her boobs prominently. 34C probably. Samuel gulped as he gawked at her without even realizing it.
She would probably let him have a taste if he asked politely.
