Draw lines connecting pair of atoms in PyMOL

I have several pair of atoms and I wish to draw some lines between them PyMOL. The resulting image should be something like this:

enter image description here

Note that some lines are of a color and other lines are of a different color.

How can I achieve this kind of graphic in PyMOL (or any similar software)?

Thanks. How can I show the bonds I just created in the cartoon representation? They only appear to show in the liner representation of the molecule.

and finally you will find the following post:

<> most trivial manner:

as cartoon show sticks, resn LEU+ILE+VAL set cartoon_side_chain_helper

and eventually something like this:

show spheres, resn LEU+ILE+VAL and not name N+O+C set sphere_transparency, 0.5

They are talking about hydrogen bonds, try to change the script accordingly.

Or study this short pymol-guide from link below:
