When I sat on the bench, there was still quite a bit of moisture. The sparrow sat only on the spot that had just dried.

I saw a sparrow at the end of the bench, shaking itself off. I sat beside it and shook out my own clothes. The dampness had already spread evenly.

The sparrow took a step toward the dry part of the bench, and I sat in that spot too. The wood grain still felt cool.

I've been there too—sat on the edge of a flower bed after the rain and stood up with my pants soaked. Then I saw a cat beside me find a dry spot to sit, and I laughed.
