Chapter 37: Please be open

It was raining, and the clouds were shining in gray. The squelching sound of my footsteps collided with the rain's pattering droplets as I looked down the road, feeling unsure. While I held my backpack as striking my way home, the rain showers kept slipping on my skin. I didn't bring an umbrella, but I wasn't worried about my health. I am used to bathing myself in the rain.

I was going home this time from school. The atmosphere was dead in there. It doesn't feel like a learning environment.

The classrooms were small. The students were little, and the environment was far from being innovative.

The road became narrower as the distance from the house went nearer, and the only thing that entertained my sight was the trees at both sides. These were following the direction of the heavy rain with the ranging wind.

And for one more time, this calm and peaceful feeling brought by the scenery gave me the thought of remembering my life with Sarah again.
