So here I am reading a status of a friend, she's glad to be going to Dubai from UK for a week, she's particularly looking forward to the sun after all the showers.
(My thought: I want it to rain at Karachi too)
In the evening one of my friends calls, and she goes on about how it rained and how lovely the weather is now.
(My thought: Dear Clouds, just bring in the rain at Karachi already!)
I'm watching Sherlock Holmes, it rains in the first episode of season 2 too.
(My thought: Now the rain's just making fun of me)
The next day, I wake up to hear the sounds of splashes of water. I practically fall off the bed to look out the window. It's the gardener watering the plants.
(My thought: UUUGGGH! Rain! UUGGGHH!)
And then our Prime Minister gets dismissed.
(My thought: Stop thinking about rain Lubaina. Politics has nothing to do with rain)

| Did I mention I love rain ? :) |
Well that's when I decide to bring in my optimistic and thoughtful self in. I can still love the wind at Karachi right ?
Because here, it's always breezy. No matter how lost or alone one feels, the winds are always there.
I head out with my friends. (To enjoy the wind ;) )
It's the fifth day of summer vacations, the adrenaline still pumps in and we have the urge to pursue an adventure. The last time my adventure spirits got high, I had ended up swimming in a water tank. To know that story you'll have to read this:
But for now, I'll go ahead with this story.
So, the news of our Roof adventure failing before is quiet famous now (credits to my blog), we decide to climb the roof of a flat!
No going down without a fight right ? Well at the least we can tell our grandchildren we have climbed a roof!
I hope I do something inspirational too though, that'll make a good story too.
I hope I do something inspirational too though, that'll make a good story too.
And we climb a flat's roof! It was pretty easy, as soon as you get to the top most floor of the roof there are stairs going up to the roof too. Easy as Pie.
YAYYYY! On a roof finally! At this altitude the winds are fast. By fast I mean really really faaaaaaaaaaaaaast, reminds me of the times when Baba used to get me to eat food saying the winds will take me away if I'm not strong. If I had been seven at this moment, I would have ran down the stairs till I find ground.
We stay at the roof, nobody says a word. The winds, the clouds, they're enough to make you love life, love nature. That's when Zee says, 'I wish it rains'. I give her the don't-get-your-hopes-too-high look but on the inside I'm screaming 'RAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIN!'
What happened after this is what one can't forget, it's one of those small joys that make one smile.
Smile from the heart.
Yes, a raindrop landed on my cheek :)
And it rains. Finally.
For five whole minutes.
