There was chaos in the heavy rain

Monday is destined to be the busiest day. When I got off work, I still had some unfinished work, but I heard intermittent thunder outside the window, as if it was going to rain. I can't help but put down my work and leave quickly, thinking that my work place is not far from home and I should be able to get home before it rains.

I hurried home all the way, and it kept raining. Fortunately, it's not too big. I hold up my parasol and deliberately speed up my steps. The lumbar process has not fully recovered. After more than a week of physical therapy, it has improved, but it has not been completely cured. Obviously, I can't walk.

The most terrible thing is that the shoes under my feet don't fit. I was suddenly in a bad mood this morning. I wore a skirt for the first time since midsummer. In order to match the skirt, I specially put on the newly bought white love shoes. Because they are new shoes, they are a little worn. Once I walk fast, I still feel a little difficult to grasp.

On the way, it rained hard and the wind began to get stronger. I didn't consider that my new shoes had been splashed with raindrops, so I ran as fast as I could with a small parasol that was about to be blown over. Pedestrians on the road have also accelerated their pace, and individual children have begun to fly.

Seeing that there are still more than 200 meters away from home, the sky seems to have missed, and the wind mixed with heavy rain pours down, and the accumulated water in the street suddenly merges into a river. I hid in a roadside bakery. I am a frequent visitor here and often come to buy some bread and cakes as snacks.

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged woman with a son in his twenties. He often goes to the store to help his mother manage the business. At this moment, mother and son were chatting when they suddenly saw me breaking in covered in rain. After a moment of surprise, I immediately showed the unique enthusiasm of the business. The female boss handed me some paper towels to wipe the rain on my face, and her son moved a chair to let me sit down and rest. Seeing that it was raining harder and harder outside, I had to choose to take shelter in the store.

Maybe it was too stormy, and the power went out in the shop soon. Looking at the opposite residential building, it was also dark. Sitting in a dark shop, I was in a hurry. 200 meters is not far, but I can't go back with my hand. When I called my husband, I knew he had a dinner, and I booked it a few days ago. I still complain that he can't do it, and he can't count on it at the critical moment. Husband smiled and said that he is not a fortune teller. I didn't know it would rain so hard. Why not buy a loaf of bread and wait while eating?

I didn't mean to joke with him, so I hung up. Looking at the heavy rain outside the window, the streets are blurred, the traffic lights at the distant intersections have gone on strike, and the vehicles are driving slowly in the stagnant water, splashing waves after waves. I'm getting anxious. When will the rain stop? Can my new shoes survive this heavy rain? If it really doesn't work, the idea of going home barefoot flashed through my mind.

My son's phone call interrupted my thoughts. He asked me about my situation and told me to pay attention to safety, especially to stay away from telephone poles and wells. At that moment, I suddenly realized where a pair of shoes is important, and giving up the entanglement of life and money made me so anxious. Actually, life is not that complicated.

After half an hour, the rain gradually subsided. I bid farewell to my female boss and mother and resolutely walked into the rain curtain. The water in the street didn't reach my knees. I wore those new leather shoes, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and finally waded home in the rain. My son stood at the door to meet me. I was glad to see that his window was closed tightly and no rain came in. Unconsciously, he has grown into a big boy.

My son saw that I was soaked to the skin and immediately took my clothes and asked me to change. What I am most ashamed of is these shoes. They were fine in the morning and in high spirits. At night, they become a chubby fish after a full stomach. Thank you for escorting me! I wiped it carefully and dried it. I hope to get up tomorrow morning as good as before!
