How does color work. I know how light gets absorbed and reflected depending on the color of the thing, but that does not explain HOW things have color.
Like. I can have a red house, red clothes and my blood is red. But all those things are VERY different things. What properties do all of them have that makes them red? How does my red look red ? Molecules? And we can mix colors too. What specificly is mixed?
What quality in red paint is also present in my blood?
I am not the best at explaining, but what I want to know is what do same colored things have in common that makes us see them as the same color despite being very different kinds of things.

Pure light contains all colors. Most objects absorb only some of those colors and reflect the rest. The combination of colors that is reflected is the color that you perceive the object to be.
