It was around 7ish when I stepped out of my office for my evening snack. The whole place had painted itself with a misty orange color and everything around looked orange….even my colleague started getting that color on his face…the wind was blowing as though it was all excited and was jumping with joy for their arrival…”aah!...there I see it”…I muttered to my friend…It was a huge black cloud that was on its way…. It seemed as though it was some kind of a carnival happening up in the sky and the strong breeze and lightening were celebrating its arrival...!!It spread across the blue sky that covered us with a sign saying “ready or not…here we come!!”The wind and the lightening went on and so did we gobbling on our snack.”Naah! It’s just a hoax call”….we thought and went back to office.

I thought I heard something whilst I was busy trying to wind up my work at 10:00 pm.

I heard it again. This time I couldn’t resist opening a slit from my window to check it out! and I yelled….”Heyy it’s raining!!”

I just turned around to find a few curious heads up and all staring at me! “First rains!!” and in no time I had like 5-6 people around me trying to get its glimpse…They all were piercing their heads as though that was a rare sight to capture!so finally the hoax call had turned into reality…

Not too many stay back in office that late so the entire 'late night' gang was just enjoying the hustle and rustle of the leaves and the smell of wet sand.Thats one thing that turns us totally nostalgic!

One remembers his school days, the other remembers how he got wet when he was a kid, the third remembers how much fun he had in his home village, and the memories just pour in!

I quickly shut off my PC, packed my stuff and ran downstairs to get some drops on my face. The whole place smelled great. I took a deep breath to and hugged nature.

It was dark and I could see the rain pouring from the light of the street lamps. It gave it a yellow color.…

I wished I could stand in the midst of this beautiful feeling that nature has to offer. Nonetheless I didn’t have to feel too bad cuz it was the first rain for the season and there was yet more to come my way!!...

And I carried myself back home….the first rains had paid off yet again!!
