Weekly Contest #341
Hey, I just wanted to talk to you one last time. Not that it is possible for something like that. I just hope this letter will do. I have been contemplating for months whether or not I should send this. Even if i knew I was going to write it, I am still kind of going with whatever runs through my mind. So, excuse the smudges.

I hear the metallic clicks and snaps of the cheap fabric and reused metal that constitutes an umbrella, as it flies away. It ends up landing on a nearby pothole filled with water and I give up on retrieving it. Too bored or frustrated. Maybe I should spend more money for better quality. “That went well.” My friend says. “Shut up.” The words escape my mouth before I even realize. The rain hits me anywhere it can, as if i...
