‘I Had Only Gone a Few Blocks When It Started to Drizzle'
Rain Gods Dear Diary: I was leaving my house in Forest Hills for my usual morning stroll. The darkening storm clouds made things look iffy for a walk, but I decided to chance it. Off I went without an umbrella. I had only gone a few blocks when it started to drizzle. A little farther on, a steady rain began. I picked up my pace in the direction of the tennis stadium, hoping to take cover under some nearby trees. Once I got there, I spotted a lonely umbrella on a low stone wall. I picked it up and, reflecting on my good fortune, looked to the sky. 'Thank you, rain gods,' I said. As I continued on, the rainfall got heavier. I saw a woman in business attire walking toward me. She was frantically searching her bag. I assumed she was looking for an umbrella. I approached her and waved. 'Here,' I said. 'Take my umbrella.' Then, as I handed it to her, I added, 'It's a gift from the rain gods!' — Alan Cory Kaufman Submit Your Metropolitan Diary Your story must be connected to New York City and no longer than 300 words.
