Brief Summary:
The
story takes place in Venus where it rains non-stop, and every seven years the
sun appears for two hours. People in Venus live underground. Margot is very nostalgic for the sun, since she
had last seen it five years ago in Earth. The other school kids had never seen
the sun whatsoever, so they were jealous of Margot. Everybody was expecting to see the sun that day. The children were envious, since she
had lived in Earth and her parents were planning on sending her back. William alongside with the other kids lock Margot in a closet. The
rain slows down and suddenly stops, the kids managed to experience and play in
the sun, while poor Margot was left forgotten in the closet until later when they come back and remember she was left in the closet.

Thoughts
and feelings
I
somewhat like the story because it is science fiction, but it is exaggerated as
well; how can people survive without the sun? At the same time the story portrays some realities of life, like suffering and bullying. I think the fact that it is raining and dark gives the story a sad and nostalgic feeling. It is full of melancholic feelings. And it also shows how somethings in life can be unfair. Margot didn't deserve to be locked up in the closet. She lost the experience that she was dreaming of because of the other kids' lack of empathy with her.
