Raincoat

Tweet

I grew up in a semi rural town where most followed a common pattern of life. Come rain, and everyone would walk out with their umbrellas. It was also a norm for those who finished their studies to leave the shores (which they still do) seeking greener pastures. My siblings were no different. When one of them came home for her holidays we found a great change in her - short hair, high healed shoes, lipstick,nail polish and what have you. Being the youngest in the family I was a pampered soul. She brought me a raincoat which was never heard of in those days. She forced me to wear it to school which I did as I was the bold one. The whole school was buzz with the news that I had a raincoat. I became a celebrity overnight. When was it that you became a celebrity?
