Rainy, but romantic

It’s been overcast and mostly raining since Sunday evening.
While gazing out my window early this morning, I saw a man with an umbrella walking toward the Metro. Suddenly, he stopped, turned and began blowing kisses in the air. I looked in the direction of his gestures and saw a woman with an umbrella, hanging over her balcony, capturing those kisses. It was as if a Sempé cartoon had come to life!
There’s always time for romance in Paris – even during a downpour.
