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.
Hunger pushed him to look in the
fridge, he didn’t want to be a bad guest but decided that finishing
his spaghettis left over from last night wasn’t too rude. He put
them in the microwave and sat at the kitchen table eating, waiting
for Markus to get up. He didn’t know how he would ride that old
thing. First, he had never ridden a motorbike before, except when
someone else was driving. Second, this thing was probably not running
anyway, no matter how many moon catchers were inside and how much
light was going out of them. Hopelessness stroke in and Jason
considered leaving a note behind and going directly to the bus.
“You’re already up kid?” Markus’s
voice made him jump out of his thoughts. It was too late to escape
for the bus.
