The Rain (Short Story) by MrPlato(m): 7:06pm On Oct 06, 2018
Danny Walker




The Rain
The clouds had gathered massively in the sky, shielding the earth completely from sun light and forming a thick dark gray sky like polluted air
"Its just 1pm and it already looks like 6:00pm" Said Rondo Rondo who looked up to the sky
"I pray it doesn't rain. Those clothes should dry first" Ayo replied...
.
.
.
.
"Papa! Papa! The rain is coming. Its coming" Dayo runs to the front yard, papa comes out
"Thank God! The crops haven't had rain in a long while and they are dying off, we really need this rain as much as we need food" Papa smiles brightly...
.
.

.
.
"Jamiu! Jamiu!" Babalola called out
"Baba" Jamiu responds running out from the backyard
"Its about to rain, get me my staff, we must hold this rain, it mustn't fall today... T festival must hold"
"Yes baba" Jamiu runs off...
.

Mummy Bola was busy in her kitchen when her little boy Told came running to her
"Mummy it wants to rain again" he had sadness in his voice
"Rain?" Mummy Bola questioned as she abandons her cooking and goes out to look at the sky
"Haaa! God please hold this rain, we do not want any flood in our house please" she cried out... Whenever there was a heavy rain Mummy Bola and her children never stop draining water from their rooms...

"He is going to go pass the next street soon, we must ambush him there" Ojo says as he drew from the weed in his hand
"He won't be alone" Kunle said
"That is why we have this charm name" Ojo replies showing Kunle the charm
"But Baba said water must not touch the charm"
"Of cause I know that" said Ojo
"But the rain is coming"
"Forget about that, I wont fall"...

Stanley is driving recklessly on the express without minding the terrible condition of the road
"I swear when I am done with Julius he will never chase the same woman with me in his next life" he said angrily then looks at the bottle of acid on the passenger seat beside him. Suddenly there is a brightly lightening flash followed by a loud thunder that hits the ground of the express right in front of Stanley's car and out of fear he turns the wheel and runs into a concrete pole, he passes out with blood coming out his nose: the sky breaks and a heavy rain descended...

What you take as a bad occurrence can turn out to be answers to someone's prayers.

Phew. I thought the need was important.

Well, that'll be a very tedious and grueling task to do right now. I'll rather you delete the thread. Haven't you thought about that? It's a better idea. smiley

Email or invite the attention of a mod to help with that hideous and tedious task then. It's a nightmare you have to deal with. It's long gone and I'm going to have nothing to do with my past. You can as well call on Preshy girl to delete hers too. Don't you think? smiley

I have by far better things to do.

Good for her. I can't, and certainly will NOT. You can hide the posts, it's just that you aren't techsavvy. Hard luck. Too stressful a task.
