Crazy Innocence

*Ken passes a paper to Betty*

                "Ken, What is this?"

*Ken Smiles*

                 "What?"

*Ken Smiles*

                 "Stop smiling! What is this? A colon, dash and closing parenthesis?"

"It's a smile, dumbo"

                  "How can this be a smile?"

"Let me show you"

* Ken draws “ :-)” *

"Now, turn the paper around and see"

                  "Ohh... So it means you were smiling"

"Yes. You are cooorrreeecccttt"

                   "Now how do I smile back?"

"In the same way. And I won't need to turn the paper round, like you did"

                   "Clever you! But, Ken, this smile-y, doesn't have a dimple, like yours. So it won't mean that you are smiling. Your's is different"

"Uh!"

                   "But I love your smile. The one with a dimple"

"Umm.. You know what Betty, when Grampa gives Gramma a peck on the cheek, he says that he loves her wdinkles hide her dimples. And Gramma says that it's not the wdinkles but Grampa’s kiss which hides them"

                   “Really?.......Ken, can I hide your dimples too? Then this smile-y would be correct"

"That sounds good."

                    “Ok”

*Ken passes another paper to Betty*

                   “Semicolon, dash and closing parenthesis??? Now what does this mean?”
