Rain drops falling on my head ....

Friday evening while returning home from office, it had started drizzling while I was still some distance from home. And with the wind so still, I was sure its going to rain pretty heavily. I started walking fast but not for the obvious reason that I did not want to get wet :) Rather I wanted to reach home as soon as possible so that I could part with my laptop and then enjoy in the rain. Did exactly that. By the time I entered home it was raining cats and dogs. Ran to my room, threw the laptop on my bed, took off my spectacles and came to the balcony to enjoy the rain, in the rain :) There was no electricity and it was already dark so I began shouting on top of my voice only to realize that I had company. Every time I shouted, shrill voices of kids would echo from all corners of the block as if answering me. It was fun and I was literally dancing with joy. The day had been a tiring one in the office and each drop of rain seemed to be draining a part of stress off my mind. For once I was not thinking of meeting my deadlines in office or being out of touch with so many of my friends or not attending CAT classes faithfully. With all this jumping, dancing and shouting I was feeling hungry now. Suddenly a thought flashed my mind which many might consider weird but I loved it. There was some watermelon left in the fridge and I suddenly felt like finishing it off while getting drenched in the rain. And that is what I did and watermelon had never tasted better before :D I could see the stars now and there was a slight disappointment about the stopping rain. But nothing to complain, it was one of the best times I had in recent past.
