The complainer
by Iza Deleanu
"Hi God, excuse me. Can I have your attention pleaseeeeeeee?"
"I am here. What's the rush."
"You call this summer, man? Last week I couldn't see my hands because of the smoke, and this week you are dragging me in this cold rain."
"Hold your horses, sis. When it's smoky, you want rain! When it's cold, you want Sun! When it's Christmas, you want a Hallmark snow with the bells and the carols, but then you scream it's too much! Make up your mind, 'cause I don't have time to play trivia with you."
"Wow, I do sound like the rest of the planet. Complain, complain, and blame it on Fidel. You are right. Thank you so much for the smoke. It was sooooooo good for my flowers and for my skin. I love the cold of the ash that cleanses my face and hair. And you are right. This also helps me with my weight loss program. When is cold, who wants to eat? I am not risking losing my fingers when is minus fifty-five. And the Sun, you know I adore my big brother, I am his number one fan. That's why I park in the Caribbean every December for a week to recharge my batteries. That's when I am one hundred percent chameleon. I am acquiring all the Sun than I can so I can go through the winter."
"So, are we good? Can I go back to more serious problems than the weather?"
"Yes, sir! Thank you so much for your patience. Before you go... can I ask you something?"
"Let me guess. You want me to give you le Prince?"
"Nah! Just the frog. I will take care of the rest."
