Mid-summer Treat

Summer heats up. The kids subconsciously complained of the heat. So we decided sleeping in the living room instead. But tonight, rain came unexpectedly. And as they say in tropical countries, when it rains, it pours! So the kids have a good night sleep and I supposed, Totog, our tenant, will be happy to hope that the kernels he planted in our orchard last Sunday will sprout out exultantly in days to come. The Department of Agriculture forecasts a shortage in rice, so I prodded Totog to clear the wasteland behind our house so that we could plant corn to supplement the diminishing supply. With the promise of an equitable share and additional cash incentives, Totog was happy to comply.
