Sophia was standing in the mud on a horribly rainy day, holding only a black rusty umbrella to shield her and Jessie from the rain. Jessie looks up at the umbrella and says:" This patch, makes the umbrella look broken, not as new as it used to be." she looks down and avoid eye contact. "
Its been broken since the lighting hit it, it took something away from us." " But why are you carrying around this burden for, it will only cause you sadness." The look in Sophias eyes changed as she said "I've had this umbrella ever since we were little , I just can't forget about it, its helped us through though times. " We have to let the past go." Jessie said. Sophia looked out from underneath the umbrella to see that the sun was peaking from behind the clouds. " You are right Jessie it's time to move on." Sophia drops the umbrella and she and Jessie make their way through the mud to the paved sidewalk, and neither of them looked back.
