April's Fool

A very fine morning, started with the rain drizzling from the sky, which somehow grew heavier and heavier, and then stopped. Perhaps it is due to the date of the day, 1st of April, 'try not to fool by any of the friends' appears in the to do list and some are more alert to any conversation given. A message from Australia, saying this particular person will be back soon, and of course, precautions are taken, just in case. Replies such as "You don't believe me? Sad." are popping up in the window, making it harder to 'counter attack', for one does not want to be fooled and also, disappoint the friend. We might be saying, "We are mature enough to understand what the limitations are." Still, we tend to forget it sometimes. Yes, it might not be something which matters to us, but what about to that particular person, who has been fooled by the very few sentences? How sure are we that he is fine with it? Indeed, April's Fool is an 'official' day where we are allowed to trick our friends, but please remember that a minor joke will do the job because we are actually putting their trust on the front line, especially when we use the sentences like "Why don't you believe me?" and splash them with water by replying "April's Fool!" when they actually take what we have said into account.
