Letting Go of Rain

My thoughts are surrounded by a woman who is not my own. Will another help me to get over this little crush? I search for another bleeding heart that my help me forget.

Chapter 3

Rain's Double

I run into someone with a pile of boxes in their arms, and barely lose balance while the person falls to the street. The boxes go flying in different directions and crash to the ground after the person lost balance.

"Aw great Kelso is going to take this from my pay check for sure," The girl says in frustration.

"I'm sorry . . . Rebecca!?"

"Oh sorry uh Chibodee was it? I guess it's becoming a bad habit for us running into each other." She asks and adding a small joke.

I laugh lightly saying "I guess you're right looks like you need some help."

She bent down and was wearing a pretty light green shirt with a white skirt, which isn't tight or lose on her. Rebecca sighs and shakes her head, and suddenly someone stepped on a box and a loud crack was heard.

"I'm going to lose my pay, I know it." Rebecca says with her eyes downcast. I manage to keep the crowd from running her over.

I ask "How about you give me a few of those boxes?"

She smiles and says, "Ok thank you it's about noon so the streets are usually busy."

'Wow she is a lot like rain. This is really interesting to meet someone even close to Rain's beauty, AHHH THERE I GO AGAIN!' I try to keep focus on what I am doing. I still get lost in thought and Rebecca looked up at me with a curious look on her face. I snap out of my thoughts and look at the deep in thought young woman walking with two boxes in her arms.

After fighting through the mob of people in New York walking to lunch, and the jammed streets we made it to Kelso's. I begin to steal glances of this attractive young woman, 'She looked up at me is she scared or curious?'

We walk in the door and Kelso looks slightly annoyed at Rebecca. He asks, "Rebecca what took you so long?"

Rebecca takes a gentle breath and replies, "It took about 30 minuets to get the items, and well I got knocked in the street again."

Kelso sighs and says, "Rebecca this is the second time this month. You know what that means."

Rebecca downcasts her eyes and nods. 'I can't let her take the fall for something that is my fault.'

"Kelso I will pay for all the damages done. It was my fault she even got knocked in the streets."

Rebecca looks at me and says, "Chibodee you don't. . ."

I hush her by putting two fingers on her lips and say, "Please don't cut Rebecca's pay for my screw up, it was my fault not hers."

Kelso and Rebecca both look at me like I'm insane. "What can't a customer be nice to a wonderful worker like Rebecca? Kelso she isn't bad really, she just needs help once in a while."

Rebecca tries to speak but nothing comes out of her mouth, Kelso asks "Are you offering to help Rebecca?"

'Well it will get me something to do now that the fights are over. I like being nice to women it's a hobby. Rebecca looks so cute with her jaw dropped.' "Yes I'm offering when ever she needs me. However I need something in return from you Rebecca."

Rebecca clears her throat and asks, "What would that be Chibodee?"

I smile and say, "I need you to talk to me. I need someone who I can tell my problem to."

Rebecca got out this notebook and was checking something. 'What does the girl give advice for a living too? She is so much like Rain even though her eyes are green.' She smiles and says, "Sure my schedule is free but when I'm at work you'll have to wait till my shift is over."

"Sure and thank you very much Rebecca bye now." I walk out of the story feeling so much better for some reason. I walk through the street with a skip in my step, and people pass wondering glances. I don't notice as I happily make my way home.

'She seems to be the answer I'm looking for. It was a fair trade I offer my help to her, and she helps me as payment. Still why is she working in a store when she seems smart like Rain? Why isn't she a professional? Oh well maybe I'll get her to tell me but right now I need some help.' My girls smile at me as I walk on with a smile on my face. I lay down on the couch in my usual fashion with one leg down on the floor.

Shirley says, "Chibodee there's a visitor here to see us."

I ask "Oh who Shirl?"

"Hi Chibodee," The voice says.

"R-R-Rain what are you doing here!?"

I hope this doesn't mess up the simple style I'm using. I'm so pleased with this fic even though I have original characters. Now is the time to thank my reviewers.

Jen23: I really appreciate your review I may review your Partners in Marriage. You seem to have a lot of fans.

SporkGoddess: Thank you for the major compliment of capturing Chibodee's voice in my story. I will keep your advice in mind; I hope you enjoyed the review I left you.

Ravenf6: Lol you've been reading too many of my story that's why you think this crush is going to end in violence or craziness. I'm not going to spoil anything all I'm going to say is keep reading.
