On an Acid Rainy Day, My Nephew Insisted on Going Hiking
Chapter 2
On the day of departure, my nephew still refused to wear a thick coat and kept saying that he was hot.
In my previous life, I talked too much and wanted to coax my nephew to wear more clothes.
But he said, "You are not my mom, it's none of your business!"
This time, I chose to be silent. He didn't want to wear thick clothes, so let him freeze.
I drove a car with my brother. When we arrived at the scenic spot, the door was not open as I expected.
There was a notice posted at the entrance of the scenic spot, which said that the scenic spot had been closed for three days due to the weather.
When my nephew saw that the scenic spot was closed, he immediately kicked up a fuss.
"No, I must go to the top of the mountain today! Mom, Grandma, I want to go up to the top to enjoy the scenery!"
My mother loved him the most. She felt distressed when he made such a scene.
"Son, hurry up and think of a way. We drove all the way here. We can't come here for nothing!"
My brother looked around and found a path that could lead straight up to the mountain.
"There's a path over there. Let's go up from there."
Seeing this, my mother was very happy. "That's great. We don't even need to buy tickets this time."
I looked up at the sky. The dark clouds were getting thicker. It seemed that it was going to rain soon.
"Brother, my stomach hurts. I have to go to the bathroom. Help me get my bag."
I was about to take off my backpack and hand it to my brother, but he dodged immediately.
"If you want to go to the toilet, then take your bag with you. Isn't there a place to hang bags in the toilet?"
I thought to myself, "You didn't want it yourself."
"Then you go up the mountain first. My stomach hurts so much. It will take a long time. I'll catch up with you when I'm done."
"Okay."
They continued to walk up while I pretended to look for a toilet.
After walking for a while, I changed my route and went down the mountain. Then, I stayed at the guesthouse at the foot of the mountain and waited for the rain to stop.
My sister-in-law called me and said, "Tracy, did you fall into the toilet? You've been shitting for so long. Come up quickly. Bob is hungry."
"Well, I can't help it. I was going to give my backpack to my brother just now, but he didn't want it. I said that I wanted to go to the bathroom, and none of you helped me get it. If Bob's hungry, then so be it."
I hung up the phone. If my sister-in-law called again, I would ignore her.
Rain began to fall from the sky. In the blink of an eye, the rain became heavier.
I sat by the window and drank hot tea, watching the pouring rain outside. It felt so good.
My phone rang again. It was my mother calling.
"Hello, Mom."
"Where did you go? It's raining so heavily now. We can't get out of the pavilion on the top of the mountain. Come and find us quickly!"
"I can't get there. It's raining so heavily and I don't have an umbrella. How can I get there?"
"Come up quickly. The food and drink are in your bag. We are hungry and thirsty now. Come up quickly!"
"Mom, you really care about me. It's raining so heavily, and it's acid rain. If you let me go up the mountain against the rain, will I still be alive?"
My dad snatched the phone away and said, "Using the time you have now to talk about this nonsense, you are now on the mountain. It's just a little rain. It won't water you to death. The whole family is waiting for you. Come here quickly!"
Bob was yelling from the side, "It's so cold. I'm going to freeze to death!"
I heard my sister-in-law say, “Mom, you're wearing a lot of clothes, so give your jacket to Bob.”
My dad was still on the phone urging me, “ Where are you? How long will it take to get there?”
"Dad, I can't get there. Why don't you come down and find me? It's just a little rain. It won't water you to death."
My father cursed in anger, “You heartless thing, why don't you go to hell for letting the family go to look for you in such heavy rain? Get your ass over here, you hear me? Or I'll skin you!”
