There is a rainbow after the rain...

Those words will always be echoed in her mind and heart. No matter how heavy the rain was poured on the ground, as long as the sun still shines, it will carve the sky with its beautiful colors.

Hoshiko Kita sat in the window seat, smiled looking at raindrops wetting the entire surface of the soil and foliage. Her mind drifted away into her childhood, a wonderful and unforgettable one.

9 years ago...

"Mom, may I, please?...." a little Hoshiko begged as she trailed behind her mother to allow her to play under the pouring rain.
"Honey, you just got fever 3 days ago and...let me see," her mother stood kneeling in front of her face, "hhmmm...I see a sweet little girl with red face. Means, You're not quite well to have showering under the rain," she said softly while putting her hands on her little daughter's cheeks.

This little girl let out a long sigh after spending her last 10 minutes arguing her mother, slowly walking back to their family room. She sat on the wooden floor by crossing her legs before starting to look out the raindrop through the large window. Mrs. Kita secretly chuckled seeing her daughter's desperate face and with a smile in her face, she's walking into the kitchen.

Hoshiko's just about lost a thought when suddenly something was moving on a tree limb. She frowned sharpening her view...
And something was falling down...
