When the other prince hummed in confirmation he continued, "The ones hitting the roof of the gazebo?" He waited for another 'mhm', "What about the leaves? The ones on the bushes sound different than the trees. And the drops from underneath the benches that are heavier and drip slower sound different too.

Not enough people understand how beautiful it is.. They just hear rain," Charles explained. Their eye contact never broke.
