Day 19 – hamsters

When it rains in the middle of summer’s sunshine, tigers are getting married. And on this day of holy matrimony, three girls walk home after school, rectangular bag on their backs. Without hurry, on their half hour walk home, with no sign of rain abating.

A car pulls up. A man ushers them to the back seat. Soaking wet, they rush in. “Where are your umbrellas”, he asks not waiting for answers.

Few minutes later, he drops them off close to where they live. They leave as quickly as they entered, scurrying off like hamsters with tiny legs. Yelling “thank you” in unison, as they run home.

This letter goes out to the man, for his generous act of random kindness.
