Ahmed and Misaki finished their study session in Misaki's room, where papers and books were piled around them as if they had witnessed long hours of focus and perseverance. Misaki put her book aside and realized clearly in her heart how much her academic performance had improved, all thanks to Ahmed's patience and his eagerness to explain everything calmly and with a smile that encouraged her. She felt a great sense of gratitude seeping into her depths and smiled at him shyly, as if saying to him, "Thank you for being by my side."
They went down together to the living room, where Misaki's parents were quietly waiting for them, surrounded by a warm atmosphere emanating from the light of the floor lamp that calmly filled the space. On the wall, the drawing that Ahmed had given to Misaki stood out, that work of art with a special touch, its precise colors and tender details, in which he had captured a moment of beauty and innocence in Misaki's eyes.
When Mr. and Mrs. Tanaka saw the drawing, they exchanged silent looks of admiration, and they could not hide the proud smile that was drawn on their faces. Mrs. Tanaka looked at Ahmed with a warm smile that held great appreciation, as if she saw in the drawing more than just a picture, but an expression of a beautiful relationship developing between their daughter and Ahmed.
Mrs. Tanaka sighed a little, then said gently and with some shyness that added a touch of cuteness to her voice:
"Ahmed-kun, your drawing is truly wonderful! Could... could you draw us too?"
Ahmed paused for a moment, surprised by this sudden request, but he soon smiled with enthusiasm and warmth. This request was an expression of trust and respect, and he felt that it truly honored him to show their love in an artistic way.
He said with vitality and a sincere tone:
"Of course! I would be very honored. I will do my best to make the picture express your beauty and spirit."
Mrs. Tanaka smiled and lightly held Ahmed's hand, which added to the warmth of the moment, filled with new horizons of friendship and closeness. It was the beginning of a new chapter, a chapter that moved the relationship from the bounds of innocent friendship to deeper feelings, surrounded by respect and affection, in which everything grows slowly and steadily.
And so, in that small room that brought different souls together, art became a new language of dialogue through which hearts expressed themselves, without words, without a barrier, just colors and shapes weaving an unforgettable story.
