English Dialogues

A Rainy Day Reunion

Characters:

  • Amit – A software engineer, recently moved back to his hometown.

  • Riya – His childhood friend, now a schoolteacher.

  • Scene: A small café near the bus stop, on a rainy afternoon.

Scene 1: Meeting After a Long Time

(The sound of rain is heavy outside. Amit runs into a café, shaking off the water from his umbrella. He looks around, surprised to see Riya sitting at a corner table.)

Amit: (smiling widely) Wait… Riya? Is that you?

Riya: (looks up, shocked) Amit? Oh my God! It’s really you!

Amit: (laughing) I can’t believe this! How many years has it been?

Riya: At least ten, maybe more. You look almost the same, just older and taller.

Amit: And you—wow—you haven’t changed much either. Still the same smile.

Riya: (smiling) Sit down, sit down. What are you doing here on this rainy day?

Amit: I just moved back to town for work. Thought I’d explore the old streets. Never expected to bump into you.

Riya: That’s fate, Amit. Rain always brings surprises.

Scene 2: Remembering School Days

Amit: Do you remember how we used to run in the rain after school?

Riya: (laughing) Of course! And then we’d get scolded by teachers for dripping water in the classroom.

Amit: And you always carried that bright red umbrella.

Riya: Oh yes! And you used to snatch it just to annoy me.

Amit: (grinning) Guilty! But you also used to hide my lunchbox.

Riya: (playfully) Only because you never shared your mom’s parathas with me.

Amit: (laughs) True. Mom’s cooking was everyone’s favorite.

Scene 3: Talking About Life

Riya: So, where were you all these years?

Amit: I went to Bangalore for studies, then got a job there. But I missed home, so I finally came back. What about you?

Riya: I stayed here. Became a teacher at our old school.

Amit: Really? That’s amazing. So you must be teaching kids to run in the rain too?

Riya: (smiles) Not really. Now I’m the one telling them not to get wet. Funny how life changes.

Amit: (nodding) Yeah, childhood feels like another world.

Scene 4: Watching the Rain

(They pause for a moment, watching the heavy rain through the café window. People are running with umbrellas, buses are splashing water on the roads.)

Riya: Rain always makes me feel calm. It’s like nature is washing away worries.

Amit: Exactly. And it brings memories. Remember the first time we bunked classes and sat under that big banyan tree?

Riya: (laughing loudly) Oh God, yes! And then the principal caught us.

Amit: He made us write “I will not bunk class” a hundred times.

Riya: My hand hurt for two days.

Amit: (smiling) But it was worth it.

Scene 5: Sharing Feelings

Riya: You know, Amit, I always wondered if you’d come back.

Amit: Honestly, I wondered the same about meeting old friends. But seeing you here… it feels like no time has passed.

Riya: Sometimes, friendships are like that. Even after years, the bond stays.

Amit: True. Do you ever miss the old gang?

Riya: Every day. I still meet a few of them. But it’s not the same. Everyone is busy with jobs, families, responsibilities.

Amit: Yeah… life pulls us in different directions.

Scene 6: Fun Memories

Riya: Remember our annual day dance? You stepped on my foot!

Amit: (laughing) Hey, that was not my fault. You moved too fast.

Riya: Excuses, excuses! My foot was swollen for two days.

Amit: But we still won second prize.

Riya: Only because the judges found us funny.

Amit: (smiling) At least we gave them entertainment.

Scene 7: Rain as a Symbol

Riya: You know what I love about rain? It connects the past and present. Like today—it brought us together.

Amit: That’s true. Maybe the rain wanted us to meet again.

Riya: (softly) Maybe some reunions are written in the clouds.

Amit: Beautiful thought, Riya. You sound more like a poet than a teacher.

Riya: (smiles shyly) Teaching makes you say such things sometimes.

Scene 8: Dreams and Future

Amit: So, what’s your dream now?

Riya: I just want to guide my students and make them feel confident. And you?

Amit: I want to balance work and life. Not just run after money. Maybe even do something creative someday.

Riya: Like writing a book?

Amit: Maybe. Or telling stories about rainy day reunions.

Riya: (laughs) Then don’t forget to add this café scene.

Amit: I promise.

Scene 9: Closing Moments

(The rain starts slowing down. The streets outside look fresh and clean.)

Riya: Looks like the rain is taking a break.

Amit: Yeah… but I don’t want this moment to end.

Riya: Me neither. It feels good to talk after so long.

Amit: Let’s not lose touch again.

Riya: Agreed. We’ll meet often. Rain or no rain.

Amit: Deal. But rainy days will always be special.

Riya: Yes. Because they remind us that some bonds never fade.

(They smile at each other, step out into the fresh, rain-washed street, and walk together, like old friends rediscovering their bond.)
