That Summer

Adela Houston is a woman of few words. She's isn't the type who starts a friendship and she's awkward around kids as well. She hates sunsets, as much as she hates some of her aunts.

They say, aside from her pretty face, nothing about her is really likeable. But that summer, when she met Aeiou Manriquez and he persisted to get to know her more, she then realized she was wrong.

That summer - when the dry season is ending and a new school year is fast approaching, little did Adela knew, it was a start of a wonderful beginning.
