During The Rain
I hate raining. I usually get cold on rainy days. Today is another rainy day. I sit in front of the window, and look at the rain. I reach my hand to catch some drops of rain, the cold feeling makes me recall a past event. That was six years ago. It also happened on a rainy day.
Just before the class ended, suddenly, rain fell to the ground. Most of the students brought an umbrella, or their parents picked them up. O sat alone in the classroom, looked at the rain, and worried. "My mom and dad already went to aunt's house this morning. Nobody can give me an umbrella, what can I do?"
While I was worrying, I saw someone come in from the rain. "Who's she?" I wondered. As she walked closer to me, I saw a face with a smile, Ms. Li. She was my math teacher. She always cared about her students and helped them in both studying and life. She walked into the classroom with her umbrella while I was thinking.
"Why are you still here?" She asked.
"I forgot to bring an umbrella." I answered.
"Will your parents pick you up?"
I shook my head and said, "They are not home now."
Ms. Li raised her hand, took a look at here watch, " oh, it's late now. Take your stuffs, and come with me. I will take you home."
I looked at her little umbrella for a moment, and she noticed that. She gave me a smile, "Don't worry. I'm sure it is big enough to shelter us from the rain." I still wanted to say something, but she hold my hand and walked into the rain. I just followed her since I was afraid to stay in the classroom by myself.
On the way to my house, rain was so heavy. Ms. Li made most of the umbrella shelter me and put herself in the rain. I didn't agree with that but she gave me a smile, as always, and said, "I'm an adult, this won't make any effect on me." Ms. Li also asked me some questions about the class. She wanted to make sure that everybody understood that.
When we arrived at my house, Ms. Li's hair and clothes were already wet. I invited her to get in and to have a cup of tea but she declined. She said goodbye and walked into the rain again. On the next day, Ms. Li was absent. I asked another teacher and found out she was sick. When she returned to school, I told her that I was sorry to make her get a cold. She consoled me, and said that was not my fault.
Today is raining. I sit in front of the window and think about her. What is she doing now? Is she still taking somebody home?
