The rain started pouring outside just when I was getting ready to go home.Staring helplessly at the rain,I realized my umbrella was left at home.Just then,a girl carrying a rainbow umbrella walked up to me.She shook her oversize umbrella and offered,"Hi there,I'm Mary.So you forgot to bring your umbrella?Would you like to share mine?" I was surprised at first,then I recognized her face as the new girl from my class.Feeling touched,I nodded eagerly,
"Oh,nice to meet you.I'm Jean.You are a lifesaver,Mary!Thank you so much!"
"So..ah,where do you live,Mary?" I asked.
"On Spring road,close by the big bookstore." She answered.
"Really?I live around that area too!" Then I offered,"do you want to come by my house and do homework together?I live just two blocks before the bookstore.When my dad comes home tonight,I will ask him to give you a ride home."
"Sure,that sounds like a great idea,Jean." Mary smiled.
"I have some cool WII games my dad just bought for me last week.
We could play the games after finishing the homework.I can't wait!" Feeling excited,I started jumping up and down on the street,imitating the dance moves from "singing in the rain."
Mary laughed and clapped her hands at my amateur performance.
Despite the heavy rain,we had a blast walking home together.
Guess what happened next?Yes,you are right.Mary and I had
become very close friends ever since.Even years later,she
still kept the umbrella,reminding us of the blissful youth.
