“On hindsight, your idea of putting up umbrellas was a wiser decision,” Brian admitted good humoredly. Sarah smiled.
Brian had wanted to put up kites. But the decorating team had vetoed against. Good thing they did, though Brian had sulked for days on end.
Today, was the first day of the street festival and the floodgates of heaven had opened. Visitors caught in the unexpected rains were silently thanking the colourful umbrellas perched high up.
“I still have one left from the lot. Care for a coffee?” Sarah asked.
Under the yellow umbrella started a brand-new love story.

a love story in heaven 🙂
Thank you Deepa. 🙂
That was a rain kissed, mushy, cute love story Anshu. Short and sweet.
Ha ha, thank you Anagha!
It would never have started under a kite! Delightful

Agree Keith! Umbrellas are much more romantic!
Heart warming – and a good practical use for the umbrellas as well 🙂
Thank you Iain! 🙂
Umbrellas do seem to play a big part in romance, mostly because they are technically too small to cover two people without cuddling, I suppose. Lovely take on the prompt.
Ha ha, maybe that’s why we have so many romances blossoming under an umbrella! Thanks Jilly! 🙂
Dear Anshu,
Sweet and romantic story. I enjoyed the read.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank you Rochelle! BTW, most times I come up with 2 stories for any prompt, then post the one after tossing the coin. 🙂
Brian admitted Sarah’s idea was better. He’s a man to treasure!
Nice story, Anshu
True that Penny! A man who doesn’t shy from admitting he was wrong is the one to treasure!
I think this is just the beginning… 🙂
Yes, Bjorn, just the beginning 🙂
Very cute.
Thank you Lisa!
And the love blossoms under the colorful canopy of umbrellas.
Loved the story
Thank you Priya, glad you liked it! Later, I came up with another story! Romantic too! 🙂
So sweet! Loved this.
Thank you Dale…glad you liked this. 🙂
Cute romantic little story. Glad the kites were not used for decoration.

Thanks Kalpana. Oh the kites were used for decoration, that they got to serve another purpose, was pure chance. 🙂
Nice idea to set up umbrella to stop rain.
Thanks Abhiray, I think so too! 🙂
Such a cute story 🙂
Thank you Bernadette! 🙂
A lovely romantic tale. Nice take on the prompt! =)
Thank you Brenda
She might be wise to go carefully, if he’s a guy who tends to sulk for days on end. Nothing very romantic about that.
Agree to that, but he is also the guy who accepts his mistakes. Thanks for commenting! 🙂
Very cheerful story. First rescue the festival, then start a romance. Theres so much an umbrella can do!
Oh, we Indians are very good at umbrella romances! 🙂
It’s good she didn’t tell him to go fly a kite. Sweet story.
I guess she liked Brian. Thank you Subroto! 🙂
LOL! 🙂
Lovely, and under the yellow umbrella dreams came true.
Aw, what a very sweet take on the prompt. Nicely done.
Good of Brian to admit his mistake even if belatedly! Nicely done Anshu 🙂
Nice ending!
