"The beautiful black clouds have made my city their home today," she messaged following it with a couple of smileys.

Eager to talk with her, he opened the message instantly. But what he read left him staring at the screen.

While he was still pondering over the unasked question of why, another message popped up from her.

"It's raining!!"

And a couple more smileys.

The smileys were the same which they used everyday, and yet, he felt as if their smile had grown wider. No, they weren't just smiling today, they were laughing at him.

She was laughing at him.

She knew he was baking at 45 degrees and yet she was purposefully sending him the messages.

But he was he too. He knew how to make her silent.

"Don't get too excited Miss. You may enjoy that rain all you want, but if I stop the rain of my words, you'll feel the drought in monsoon too!"

Bang on target.

It was her turn to stare at her screen. She couldn't even imagine her days without reading his words. And now he was threatening to end it. And all this over rains?

"That's not fair," she messaged shedding some tears through the emoji.

A sly smile spread on his lips. He new the job was done. All he needed now was a little closing act.

"Everything's fair in love and war," he messaged, "and this is SUMMER!!"

And just like that he went offline.

She could do nothing else except ponder over whether Summer was meant to be love, or Summer was meant to be war?

But more importantly, she hoped against hope that he'd never stop the shower of his words.

Because,

They were her rain
And they were her heat
They were her heart
And they were her beat

Yes, his words were all that she wished...
