Do you love me?

She asked. Yes, he said, I love you as much as the rainbow.

Why the rainbow?

With her brows raised, she asked. It’s because our love is as lovely as a rainbow, he replied, smiling.

How?

She asked, laughing. He was enjoying this and continued smiling. He replied — it’s because our love is as colourful and bright as a rainbow. It’s so beautiful that it’s on display for all to see.

Caught in between a joyful laugh

She asked again, how much do you love me?

I love you as far as the other end of the rainbow ends, he said still with a smile on his face.
