POJECT There Will Come Soft Rains
Maria and Vlad spend their last night at the student dorm before moving out. The summer heat, the noise from the neighborhood and the things they don’t tell each other don’t let them sleep and Vlad reads to Maria a SF story about a planet on which it rains endlessly. Eventually, the bedtime story turns out to be an incantation.
