A Scant of Daylight

It's been raining incessantly since dawn.

I was up 3 times (that's all that I can recall) during my slumber last night. First time, it was too hot and I needed to ensconce myself. Second time, the sudden heavy rain that chimed melodiously on the roof woke me up. Third time, I was hungry, for breakfast.

It seldom happens, the rain continues to fall until now. Albeit it's 3pm now, the sky was still like morning. The ashen sky looked as if it had been mourning for someone. Gusts of wind somersaulted as it sent chills that rattled my bones.

There wasn't even a vestige of ultra-violet ray (very healthy condition for the skin). Such a gloomy day (I've heard of 'Gloomy Sunday' but not gloomy Monday).

Actually, I was rather frighten.

Mom and dad are working; Brian and Damien are in school; grandma sleeping; maid busy with the house chores. The house is just like an empty shell.

Oh... I'm so lonely.

Someone call me, please.
