Welcome to a new excerpt of Rainbow Catcher for the Weekend Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday.
Now let's go back to our story.
Summary of previous episodes: Clarissa is coughing and wanted to watch Everett Cooper on TV but Jason refused, she is due to get her rainbow the next day but she seems scared, to make her feel better Jason leave the TV on. Clarissa tried to explain about rainbows, she is a big fan of Everett Cooper but Jason is not too sure about it. Clarissa complained about her dialophone but Jason needs to go to work. Before completely leaving he is thinking about getting her her rainbow. We flashed back to the meeting Jason had with a rainbow seller at the black market. Jason left Clarissa's room to go to work. Jason was talking to his boss about the rainbow coming the next day. Jason prepared the money for the rainbow in a sport bag and went to the hospital. The rainbow seller arrived for the delivery. But it was a scam and Jason prepares to go get the rainbow himself in the desert. Markus has a last surprise for him.
We start just where we left off last week.
He was wearing a yellow t-shirt with
long sleeves and yellow trousers which made him look as if he had
just risen from the sand. The liquid in the glass he served Jason was
also yellow. Jason paid for the oil and dirty water and watched some
of the particles of sand fall at the bottom of his glass while other
hanged there glittering in the desert's light. He knew that he
couldn’t have better. The fresh and clear water of Polysky city was
far away now. He had to make the most of things just as Gena had told
him. He watched TV while waiting, it was Everett Cooper again. The
man was decidedly omnipresent all over the country and not only in
Clarissa’s room.

Hm. I wonder what the people in the desert think of Everett Cooper.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a real 5-star Michelin restaurant. ;-)
