My story has three heroes This is Alice Alice has a message to Bob
And here is Bob He's looking forward to Alice's message!
But this is Eve! She's eavesdropping!
Both Alice and Bob know that Eve's eavesdropping them!
"I love you!" This is Alice's secret message But Eve mustn't know!
"I love you!" Eve not to understand, Alice encripts her message
"I love you!" For encrypting Alice uses a chipher
Her cipher is a "one-time pad" Each message is encrypted differently

For encrypting Alice has used a QKD chipher
Now Bob knows Alice LOVES him Eve knows nothing Alice knows Bob knows
Long Live Quantum Cryptography! Turning Ends into Happy Ones!
Thank You for Your attention!
