The Game of Rain and Sunshine

THE GAME OF RAIN AND SUNSHINE

Once again, Elmira and Timor competed with each other in the game of rain and sunshine. But it was in vain. As they were both equally powerful, Elmira wasn't bringing sunshine and Timor wasn't bringing rain. 

Dull, frustrating clouds were looming in the sky for too long. The game had become wearisome, insipid. Being more impatient, Elmira tried something she had never done before... She withheld her own power, and she even secretly asked for rain, instead of her favorite sunshine. 

Thus, Timor won... 

Thus, Elmira lost ... 

"It was about time for this foolish game to come to an end" Elmira thought, rather relieved than disappointed by her defeat. 

Ages passed, and Elmira learned to withhold her power more and more.

So did Timor. 

And a day came when none of them could bring rain or sunshine anymore. 

And a time came when they both forgot that once sunshine and rain were not random occurrences. 

Now they were just observing the weather as it changed...
