FROG RAIN

Story:

Strange weather has returned to the city.

If the rain catches you, you turn into a frog. When it passes, you’re human again.

Nobody knows where the Frog Rain comes from, or when it’ll return.

Most people have gotten used to it by now.

But for a new kid like me, the Frog Rain might be my best chance to make some friends.

In these strange, peaceful days, I begin to draw closer to the people around me, glimpsing the desires they keep hidden, the secrets they never speak of, and all the quiet things in between...
