Rigid Red

By Aayushi


Red was her favorite color and so she demanded him an expensive Red diamond ring for engagement.

Being financially poor, he could not fulfill her wish. She became disappointed and angry with him.

Looking at her sad face he gifted her a bunch of red roses to impress. But she did not respond.

Despite being a bad cook, he made a red velvet cake for her. Still, she did not respond.




This time he bought a beautiful red frock on her birthday. She accepted it half-heartedly.

Finally, he plucked a red tomato from the garden, fitted it in his nose, and started making fun of himself. This time she could not control her emotions and suddenly burst out laughing.

That day a joker succeeded in convincing his 5-year old daughter who was trying to arrange a ring ceremony for her cute doll.
