"That one"
She beckoned at that red umbrella. The shopkeeper pulled it from the pile of several others and opened it. She checked its features; it was not that extra and seemed little feeble as well. She looked at the sky. It was already signalling a heavy rain.
"My bad, why did I forget to carry an umbrella?" She infuriated.
It was already dark. The shopkeeper knew she was in a hurry, so he started showing her several others with the intention that she was definitely going to buy one. But that dark red color had an effect on her. She was already wooed and that small heart embroidered on the boarder was what fascinated the most. She decided to buy that without any second thought.

Lights and Thunderstorms....
She paced fast. The wind started howling and it started to rain heavily. She clenched her umbrella tightly.
"Don't worry. Just five more minutes, then you will be home" she comforted herself.
Suddenly someone slipped under her umbrella next to her heart.
"Sorry, I need your help", he quipped.
Without uttering any word she kept on walking. He too didn't speak. She approached her home.
"I have to go," she spoke softly.
"Thank you", he said and waved her good bye and resumed his journey.
She felt sorry that he had to walk wet. She ran towards him and handed him the umbrella.
"You can return it tomorrow".
"Of course, I will. Thank you very much."
With a chill on her heart she rested on her bed, going back at that moment once again. She started to imagine rest of the story. She didn't know exactly what the reason was but she was so excited about the next day.
She waited the whole day waiting that someone would call her in order to return her umbrella. She waited till noon but no one knocked at her door. Sadly, the evening passed, still she wasn't called. She had a hope somewhere inside her heart that he would come.

Weeks passed.
She had now slowly started to forget her umbrella and that stranger.
One sunny day, she was dawdling in her garden when she saw someone under the umbrella coming nearer. That umbrella was dark red. He stopped next to her house and waited....A girl came running and hugged him. She joined him under his small red umbrella. They walked passed her house. The girl was next to his heart. I kept on looking at them. Then I realized, the umbrella had a heart embroidered on its border.
