Dancing In the Rain
She drove to school dazed, staring out the window at the rainy sky. She hadn’t seen her mom in 5 years.The last time she’d seen her was at a family reunion when she was 11. Tomorrow at 8 in the morning,Twilah Nicole Shaw would board a flight to go to Atlanta, Georgia to live with her mother. It didn’t seem real. Today was only Thursday.The last day she’d probably see any of these people.Twilah decided she’d make the best of it. Twilah loved her dad. How could she just leave her life with him behind? She arrived at the school and parked her car in the nearest parking place she could find. She stepped out into the rain. She could care less if she’d get wet. What did anyone care? It’s not like they’d ever see her again anyways? People passed by with umbrellas and stared at Twilah like she was insane.Twilah stared up at the sky.The rain was pouring now.She lifted her hands to the sky and twirled in circles. Cars, trying to find parking spots honked at her but she was in her own world,she didn’t care.She loved it.
