Rain
It was a beautiful morning, the rain falling down and striking the window made a perfect symphony for the perfect dream, just to stay in bed all day and do nothing but to sleep and dream of that perfect life of mine…
Obviously, it wasn't my case.
I had to stay awake thanks to those feral thunders that I was really afraid of. It was a fear that I didn't understand, but in any case I kept working on my latest book, I needed to deliver it in two days and a book with barely 500 words was not considered anything but a short story. My nerves were so sensitive thanks to the coffee that even the beautiful rain sounded like hammering on my window.
This wasn't good.
Somehow I ended up leaving my work (yet again, unfinished) on the table and taking my brand new hoodie, it wasn't waterproof, but I needed some fresh air, anyway I could have it. The morning rain was barely a bother now, leaving some weak drops only to fall, I passed by Sugarcube Corner with wet hooves, the last thing I needed was more sugar on my system. I stopped under some cover to look up, and see the rain falling down to the ground in elegant fashion, it was a relaxing sight. But my body was getting cold and the hoodie was already too wet to be used again, I was trapped under this cover, concentrating so much on the cold sensation of the wind passing through my fur, chilling my spine every second.
Maybe I was too concentrated to hear the breathing that was behind me, but that was until that breathing turned into a voice.
-Good rain, ¿huh? - The voice was a calmed, yet strong and comfortable sound. –Is awfully strange to see rain on this part of Equestria, maybe the Pegasus went a little too further from Sweet Apple Acres, heh, I don't know...
I didn't knew what to say, I wasn't expecting to see or encounter anypony else, and I was too shocked even to turn around and try to spot the pony that called that.
