The sky is grey. The soothing pattering of rain on the roof of a shed. Two people seeking shelter staring up at the sky with brightly coloured umbrella. The quiet whisper of an exchange between friend permeates through the silence. The rain slows to a halt, the pattering of shoes and gone. 

Author's note: As you may have read in the description, I started this writing challenge to encourage myself to getting back to writing and posting. I thought I'd experiment with something short and abstract with a very loose plot to test out the water a bit. I think I might keep this as a separate series if I decide to do more. But for now, I'll post this. Hope you enjoy this!
