The image splits in two horizontally when "black and white" means globally "colored in the dark" and "sober in the light".

The image is split again in three along the depth. The foreground shows fruits and flowers and is slightly out of focus. On the right, hands are delicately holding a rose, and seem to shoot the bunch of flowers.

On the left, a single hand is about to grab some fruits, take the glass, and turn the page of the black-on-white green-covered book.

Among four characters on the left page, two girls are shown on the right, one is black, one is white, and they are standing almost back to back. The hand will give live colors to the black-and-white story. White will become flesh-colored, and black will become brown. Grapes are going to end up in the glass, purples ones will produce red wine, and green ones will produce yellow wine (which is not "white").

We may now focus on the main action, and the story begins from the right. We see an angel and a devil standing in an aggressive back-to-back position. Snakes are face-to-face, but they seem even more aggressive. A contrast within a contrast. The red devil and white angel drag in the wine colors, although we know that white wine is yellow. We also know that red comes from purple.

Then two black-and-white cats are lying on the purple couch. They are still back to back but, at least, they turn and face each other. They are one step closer to the reconciliation, still they need wine (and hands!). At this point, a blast of colors is injected, we go from very simple to very complex, and we can appreciate what black and white may also mean.

Standing at the center of the scene, the girls of the book are face to face and connected by the green energy of its cover. Thanks to the hand which now holds the glass, they share the result of the transition from green to yellow, and purple to red. The "black" girl is brown (but she has black hair), drinks the "light" wine, and is wearing a white dress. The "white" girl is not white at all (though her shoes are!), her hair is yellow, like the light wine, but she drinks the red wine. Since she wears a brown dress, we can conclude that brown comes from red, and then flesh must be coming from yellow.

We now understand that the "light" sequence is white, green, yellow and flesh; while the "dark" one is black, purple, red, and brown. The dark and light can become either "black and white", "purple and green", "red and yellow", or "brown and flesh". It depends.

As we go to the left, we are able to see girls' umbrellas. To know which goes to whom, just match the handles, and the dresses will match too. The umbrellas are used for protection against the rain of the golden luster. The girls do not want to dilute their wine.

Finally, on the very left lies the climax. The girls took advantage of the FRUIT of their connection, and a black-and-flesh picture now shows the ultimate encounter when the front and side views of a face are merged together.

Unfortunately, we go out of focus again, when we reach the background. On the right, a man is dressed in black and white and is lying on a gray chair. He is truly colorless and maybe he needs the powers of the flowers lying behind him in the golden vase.

Wait a minute... when we were looking in the also-out-of-focus foreground, what was the first thing we saw on the right side?

The rose!

The guy is honest, he knows he cannot blend as girls did. The only thing he is thinking about: what if I give the rose to the girls? The girls are black and white, I am so. They are now one, so am I. The cats were exactly at the same position before using the fruits. Since the vase nearby the rose is also black and white, should I use the flowers now?

"I must meet HER to make myself transformed into another colorful self."

Instead of being outside and looking inside, he wanted to be inside and looking outside. He wanted to discover new colors. So he used both his hands to grab the flowers from the golden vase and went under the golden luster. Then the power of the flowers allowed the rose to completely change his mind and his clothing, for he now wears the colors of the wine.

He refused to change his shoes, though. He wanted to feel the same ground. But everything else has been replaced by the spirit of the girl. It means that his mind, not only his head, is now brown and flesh. He cannot be racist because he knows he is both colors, as he was black and white in the first place. After having discovered blue by looking outside, he is about to meditate on a red-and-yellow chair which reminds him the separated-then-unified girl, thanks to the wine colors.

The rose showed that red was the color of blood, which is the same for all people no matter the skin color. The devil could not accept that the angel was not red, but when the angel became the white girl, she was drinking red wine in order to be red, at least inside. Likewise the angel could not accept that the devil was not white, but that is what he chose to wear when he became the black girl, in order to be white, at least outside.

As soon as both opponents accepted to look beyond less-than-skin-deep, they realized that they were the same. As red and as thin as the curtain.

There are only one girl and only one guy in the story. Well, maybe there is only ONE character overall.

A spiritual purple one, the color of which red came from.
