Chapter 10
It has been sometime since I last saw Rain. I knew something had happened but I didn't call or ask her. I believed in personal privacy and if she was comfortable enough to tell me, she would have.
Her calls and SMS were getting lesser each day, but the Leo's pride in me refused to dial that number.
'Boy ar, getting late ar! Better go sleep!' yelled Mummy.
I couldn't and wouldn't fall asleep. What's wrong with me? I am so bothered about what had gone wrong here, but gave excuses to prevent me from making the call? This was getting nowhere; I had to remove that pride in me and start making my first call to Rain - the rare attempts in life.
'Call her you dump ass! Don't you want to know what could have happened the past few weeks?'
'Don't! She may not be in trouble - she may need to be with herself for the moment. After all, who are you to her?'
'Stupid! What's wrong with a simple call from a good friend? You can treat it as if you are chatting with her. Ah! Sian right? Call lar!'
'Hmm... sounds like a good idea,' I thought to myself after going through a series of thoughts elimination in my mind. Mustering all available courage, I took a deep breath and took out of my phone.
'Hello?' I whispered softly into my phone, 'Rain?'
There was a complete silence.
'Are you ok?'
The silence continued.
Suddenly, the call ended. I held onto the phone, with the ending tone kept playing in my right ear - I totally lost about what was going on. I swear that it was Rain on the other line and she was crying because in the midst of silence, I heard weeping. The silence at her side was sorrowful and there was an unexplained strong tension. I truly needed some answers.
'Beep' - there was a message and it was from Rain.
'Meet me near my house tomorrow night.'
I bit my lips.

Chapter 11
I was twenty minutes early.
We planned to meet at the coffee shop at eight oÂ’clock sharp, but I couldnÂ’t wait until that time; I was not only anxious to learn about what could have happened to her and was extremely worried. Maybe there was serious family trouble? Her mum boyfriend? There were too many question marks appearing in my head and I had to solve them.
Rain was early too - she was wearing the same top I met her at Milk Bar, with the exception that she was wearing skirts instead of jeans. It has been only a few weeks and I could see her face losing the usual radiant glow that flickered around her, like an aura.
Rain moved towards where I was and sat the seat in front of me. Then she handed me a letter. I was surprised.
‘Don’t read until I have gone home… Promise?’
I nodded my head.
Then she reached and held my hands. The feeling was like Nokia phone charging battery - I was energised and rejuvenated. I held tightly in return, as if I was telling her ‘It’s ok, I am here for you.’
‘Have you fallen for me?’
This question came too fast; I wasnÂ’t prepared at all. I simply avoided her strong gaze and cracked my head for a reply. My brain was choking - nothing came out, but nothing could enter as well. It was quite an embarrassing silence on my part. The conflicts came from my heart, where my feelings for her residue and grew unconsciously. And my mind - where it kept warning me about the Clubbing-Girl- Theory. Actually, I donÂ’t see her as a clubbing girl: Her down-to-earth, cute personality and sweet looks were heavenly combination that dismissed that notion.
Plus the fact that Rain was very much different.
‘I guess maybe not…’ Rain sighed, but looked a little relieved.
‘I…I…’
‘Cloud, I want to play the swings. Follow me for a while ok?’
I had no chance to reply. We left the Coffee Shop soon and found a playground with swings.
‘It’s very difficult to find swings in Singapore these days…’
I agreed with Rain. The government are so paranoid about little children flying off the seats and chose to remove them. The sad thing about playgrounds in Singapore these days is that they donÂ’t look like playgrounds. Have we all been so sheltered that we failed to realise that injuries are part and process of growing up? Like love, we grew from heartaches and itÂ’s true that it made us stronger emotionally and matured spiritually.
‘You have been a real good friend, Cloud… how I wished it could remain in this way forever…’
In my heart, I was suffocating because my bottled feelings cannot be released - the pressure was deathly. I was happy that she saw me as a very good friend. Was it enough? I thought it should be. After all, who am I to her?
Then she came over and hugged me. I held her tightly. I donÂ’t know why - I just didnÂ’t want to let her go. She must have suffered a lot these days and actions speak louder than words; I want to be there for her. I want to show her that her burden will be lifted and it wouldnÂ’t be so heavy anymore. I want to dry her tears, I want to smooth out her problems, I want to assist along the wayÂ… there were simply too much things I wanted to do.
My soul connects with Rain. In this very moment, I knew I loved her.
‘I got to go now…’
I tightened my grip on Rain - I could see her eyes smiling. Then she placed a small kiss on my cheek.
‘Let me go…’
It was only then, I released her.
‘Don’t send me up… I will walk up myself…’
I respected her wishes and stood there until Rain vanished from sight.
