The White Umbrella

On Tuesday afternoon, I went shopping at the supermarket.
While I was shopping, it started raining outside.
Because I did not have an umbrella, I bought a white umbrella.
But when I went outside, it was not raining.
A person at the supermarket said, “The rain stopped, right?”
I felt a little disappointed, but I carried my white umbrella and walked home.
