As I passed through the miscellaneous tree,

there was a small square.

It was a playground for children in the neighborhood.

Since there is a mountain behind the temple,

there was a trail that continued from the graveyard.

I built a small house at the end of this square.

It was an excavated hut built with logs and dead branches.

Although it was modest, it was a secret base.

Was that the time of the rainy season?

Suddenly, showers started to rain.

Rushed into the secret base.

"You are great, it will not rain at all."

A voice caught my ears right away.

It was a girl who attended the same elementary school.

"Yeah, I leafed many leaves on the roof."

I was a little proud.

The raindrops striking the roof

and the ground seemed to applaud me.

It was then.

"Look, see, that one."

"What?"

It was a snake.

A thick black snake was crawling.

The large grain wet skin of the rain was shining all over.

It will slowly cross the ground in front of us.

It does not look something here.

"It's fine, it's amazing!"

She was excited.

She even had a small applause.

I was frightened.

So, I could not say anything.

Until that black tail hides behind grass.
