The four Aldens walked to the front windows of the bus station-lunchroom. The sky was darker than ever, and the dust was whirling around in the air. “Here comes the rain,” Benny exclaimed. And sure enough, the raindrops began to fall. The big drops fell slowly at first, and Violet watched them hit the windowpanes. Then the drops began to fall faster and harder. Rain pounded on the windows. “I wonder where those kids are,” said Henry. Violet replied, “Well, wherever they are, they are soaking wet. I know Frank said not to let them in, but just the same, I think we ought to.” Benny laughed. “We don’t know their names. What should we call? ‘Boys? Hey, boys!’ ‘Hello, you boys!’ Or, ‘Come here, you kids!’” Just then there was a knocking at the door. It sounded very loud, even over the howling wind. Benny said, “I don’t care! You can’t just leave somebody outside in a storm like this. You can’t!” Henry went to the door and unbolted it. The wind tore it out of his hand and two very wet boys stumbled in.
