Red represents the colour of passion, and silver was a choice as it goes well with red. Where can a passionate emotion come from? And I thought “Loving beloved ones” is too common as an expression for passion. Then it came up to my mind, “Missing beloved one” will lead to a desire to “Want them”, which could be desperate sometimes, and what would want to do in the first place when you get to meet the beloved one after missing them so badly? Probably most people, or at least I would, “Kiss beloved one”. So-called “awaited kiss”. The right bottom “Bacio” means a kiss in Italian. It says, “Mi Manchi... Ti Voglio Tanto Bene.” There are 2 explanation on the message. One, it means “I miss you... I love you so much.” The phrase “Ti Voglio Tanto Bene.” is a very local Italian expression that is used between lovers, family and friends. A direct translation will be “I want/care you very well”. Two, the colours of the letters, there are red and silver. Now, this is the another reason I had to use the Italian phrase. Taking out the red letters, and putting them in different order, it will turn out to be the name of the requester.
