Will It Rain Today?

by teols2016

“Will it rain today?” I asked.
 
“I do not see Jason Cave in your contacts,” my phone replied.
 
I sighed and tried again.
 
“Will it rain today?”
 
“I found Kay’s Bar and Grill on 8th Street,” my phone replied. “Do you want that one?”
 
“No,” I growled. “Will it rain today?”
 
“I’m sorry,” my phone replied. “I do not understand.”
 
Running late already, I was ready to hurl the thing against the wall.
 
“Will it rain today?” I asked, my frustration boiling.
 
“It’s raining right now,” my phone replied.
 
I looked out the window and saw the growing downpour. Fabulous.
