A Sake Day Adventure: A Bottle of Sake - Line 1

One night

A rigid storm occurred

A monk was chanting a prayer on his temple

On the courtyard

A boy was running, looking for a shelter

He was

Broken

Unwanted

Alone

To the door of the temple

He knocks waiting for a couple of seconds

So, the monk stops on praying

He walked by the entrance of the door

The monk smiled wildly

letting the boy in

who was soaking wet from the rain

The boy sat on the shiny floor

lighted by a single candle on the middle.

The monk excused himself

bringing clothes for the boy to wear

he went back to a room on the side

and the boy was left alone

changing his clothes

stripping until his naked

He slipped his feet to the trouser

the monk gave him

As he wore the shirt

he heard a loud growl

He looked by the window

and from there a tiger jump in

crouching, making itself ready

for its kill.
