It was raining as I drove to work this morning. As I waited at one set of stop lights, I noticed a young couple standing at the side of the road. Young man was holding a large umbrella over both their heads as they waited for a break in the traffic to cross the road. He finally judged that the time was right and raced off across the road ...and she stayed still.

He ran off through the cars, with the umbrella, and she stood perfectly in her spot as the rain fell upon her. The traffic started again and the lovers were stranded on`either side of the road. He perfectly dry and she looking at him as though his life was about to come to an immediate end, which no doubt it was about to!

I drove on then and did not see their reunion, but no doubt the very first then she said to him was that next time she held the umbrella.

If the had just walked another 30 meters they could have crossed at the lights...safely and together, under their umbrella.

How many people can you get under one umbrella?
