Then they worked another half an hour and completed their work . Sebastian put the weed puller on the ground and stood straight .
Sebastian : ouch ! My back is killing me .
Lucy : Same vibes here !
Peter : But it's really a good experience .
Sebastian : My grandfather is a farmer , if you wish I can take you there another day .
Isabel : okay for me .
Johnson : double okay .
The boys put on their coats .
Sebastian : okay , let's return these buckets first .
Johnson : I am coming with you this time .
They both took the buckets in their hands but suddenly they felt some chill droplets on them.
Lucy : Yikes ! It is a downpour.
Peter : I didn't expect this .
Isabel : anyway , we are drenched already .
Johnson : Rain rain go away come again another day ...
He began to sing .
Sebastian continued : little Johnson wants to play .
Isabel continued with another song .
" rain rain it's okay , let's play like it's a sunny day ..
Others joined " even if the sky is gray , rain rain it's okay ...."
Everyone sang and laughed together .
While Clara and her friends were searching for a place to hide from rain . But they couldn't and stood still as running is not the best idea .
Sebastian : does anyone like to dance in the rain ?
Lucy : I do .
Since they had worn coats nothing was inappropriate .They all stood in circle formation and began to dance .
They moved left together, then clapped their hands then right . Then they held each other 's waist and danced by tapping feet and moving in circles.
Sebastian : Guys , this is the best day of my life .
He blurted out .
Peter : Woohoo ! You are right sebastian.
Lucy : ha ha .. I love you buddies .
Isabel : same here .
Everyone shouted " love you all " .
Their laughter sounds echoed in the whole ground . Since it was lunch time , many students were walking to their hostels and home with umbrellas , saw them dancing and joined them . Even professors who were coming out , saw them dancing and remembered their youth days and smiled . Don't want to say about young professors , they joined them with their friends and they danced as couples.
After an hour , they began to move group by group.
Isabel : it's enough for today guys . We may catch a cold . let's go now.
Sebastian : then let's go together .
They all walked together until they reached hostal ground .
Then they splitted .
Isabel : hey , did you bring things ?
Lucy : yeah , my father had come and gave my things to the hostel guard. It might be in our room .
Isabel : that's good to hear .
. While going , Lucy was observing everything.
Lucy : It is so different here . I mean , girls wearing shorts , everyone is talking in phone. It is so lively here .
Isabel : just wait for the evening dear . You will be amazed and since only girls are allowed here , we are free to wear shorts .
Lucy : oh . Okay but I am not gonna wear it since it is already cold .
Isabel : me too .
They reached a staircase.
Isabel : Be ready to climb mountains.
Lucy : I don't understand.
Isabel : you will .
They were climbing steps but it seems like stepping in the great Wall of China .
Lucy : Everything has its limit . Even the ocean can control itself up to a certain point only .I am getting old , as I step on eve..ry single step , Isabel .
Isabel : haha ..
Lucy : don't laugh buddy . Man is dying here .
Isabel : Here we are .
Lucy : good gracious ! Finally .The man who first climbed the Mt.everest wouldn't have been this happy .
Isabel : here room no . 1812 . Don't forget .
Lucy : the last room on this floor . I'll remember.
They opened the door and entered.
Isabel: how is it ?
Lucy: simple and perfectly tidy.
Isabel : go and take a bath , I will make soup to avoid catching a cold .
Lucy : do you have a stove ? .
Isabel : electronic stove .
One by one , they bathed and drank soup .
Lucy : you are a great chef .
Isabel : thank you madam.
Lucy once again looked around the room and saw a guitar .
Lucy : you play guitar?
Isabel : ah.. well sometimes I do .
Lucy : can you play it for me ?
Isabella : sure .
(Music recommended : pirates of Caribbean theme music.)
She took her guitar and sat beside the window and started playing.
Her long Hair was untied since she had just bathed , it was swaying due to the breeze from the opened window .
Lucy couldn't stop moving her head .
Lucy just opened her eyes when the music stopped .
Lucy : you are awesome, Isabel . I am a slave to your fingers.
Isabel : thanks but you don't have to be slave . Let's take a nap for sometime .
They both slept peacefully until evening.
★ MEMORIES ★
We walked together hand in hand .
We shared stories ear to ear .
We loved each others hearts to hearts.
We grew , young to old .
smooth hands turned rough .
Black hair turned white.
Shifted position from learning , to
teaching.
But ... But something didn't change,
The rain which fell on us ,
The air we breathed ,
The land we walked,
The memories which are evergreen in my heart .
