A Weather Today

The day was windy. I went to a market with my friend. Along the way, we started arguing about one thing. It's funny how people could argue about some rubbish. So, when we went to the market, I couldn't enter shops, because I didn't have a mask with me. I washed it in a washing machine and pegged it out on a balcony. The wind went stronger as we went back home, and billowed our clothes. It's nice to feel a cool wind, except there wasn't dust in the streets. The wind spread it around, blowing it in people's faces. I regretted that I hadn't got a mask again.
