A small red raindrop fell from the sky. It looks down, ready to color the black-and-white city.
Along the way, it was disgusted and frightened by people, but finally met someone who appreciated its beauty.
It slipped slowly into a flower pot, and all the petals began to turn red. At the end, all the flowers in the city became red.
Everyone is now looking forward to the next rain, and they wait carefully because no one would like to miss the colors in their lives.
