Click on the pictures for their credits!

   One rainy day, I was sitting in the class looking outside the window for a chance to go out and enjoy the weather. The class seemed so noisy, since it was a free period! Everyone was enjoying playing and talking, except me? I was alone, wondering to go out and have fun in the rain, splash water here and there, and jump around. Drip drop, drip drop.... It sounded so much delightful to the ears. It was raining so heavily that it felt as if there is a flood.

   How much I wished to go out and play! Soon it was time to go home, we barely heard the bell rang because of the torrential rain, as if it is bucketing down the water. Thanks God, I had a raincoat and an umbrella for some extra protection, so that I don't get sick. But then still, I couldn't restraint myself. However I had to follow my mom's rule! Therefor rules are rules...

   When I reached home, I smelled something being sizzled! Hmm... Smells appetizing! The whole house was filled with the fragrance of the chicken nuggets being frizzled. I felt like eating them as fast as I could because I was dying of hunger! Sadly, the nuggets where burning hot. Even if I take a single bite, my mouth would burn because of heat. So all I could do, was to wait patiently until the nuggets cooled down.

   Suddenly the rain became even more heavy and the winds became more gusty. Sounded as if someone was knocking down the earth! It felt so good looking out through the foggy window while eating some nuggets. I asked my mom if I could go out and play in the rain… She strictly said “NO”

   Guess what happened after a while? The rain became quieter like a noisy classroom becomes quiet as the teacher enters. My mom then gave me the permission to go out and splash water, and jump on water puddles. Why to enjoy this time alone. So without hesitating, I called my friends and then we all started to enjoy together and we had so much fun that I could never forget this time in my life. It was one of the best days ever for me and I guess for my friends too.

   Oh yes, I forgot to tell you one thing! Rainy days are the best days to spend with your family sitting in the gallery while having some refreshments such as drinks and snacks! You would have a great time! And it is also the reason why I like rainy days! ​​
