Rain tea

I woke up at the sound of someone banging on my door. Some people just don't know other people's sleeping habits. I opened the door and saw the culprit; it was Shanila, my sister-in law. "Those who sleep too long miss all the fun," she said. I did not understand what she said. "It is raining. You want to go out?" asked Shanila. It was raining cats and dogs, or should I say horses and cattle? But the question was how would we sneak out while mom was still at home. If she finds out about the plan then she would yell at us loud enough to get the entire subcontinent to hear loud and clear.

We sneaked out of home and went to the roof with a cup if tea. The idea was to have rain tea. I had read about rain-tea in a story book. I remember the protagonist of the story would have tea in the rain. It said that when the tea and rain water got mixed together, it created an amazing taste. This was my chance to try that. In spite having the fear of being poisoned by arsenic, I took a sip. And I have to admit, the author was right. The tea tasted different. It was sweet and almost chilled. Eventually my brother joined us, but did not like rain teas as we did. Those who are as adventurous as I am can try this drink when it rains next time.
