With the start of the trial match, the field was crowded with students whose faces were filled with enthusiasm, and the stands roared with the voices of teachers and some parents who came to witness the emergence of new talents. The scene was full of clamor and anticipation, as if the air itself was trembling with the breaths of the crowds.
Ahmed stood on the field, watching the stands with sparkling eyes. He then saw Misaki making her way through the crowd with hesitant steps, like someone looking for a seat that held a special meaning for her. And when their eyes met, a warm smile appeared on his face, holding something of confidence and something of a challenge, and he waved his hand to her in a friendly gesture, inviting her to be closer to him, even from afar.
Misaki finally sat in a seat that gave her a clear view of the field, yet her heart was more attached to Ahmed than her eyes were to the ball. Signs of curiosity and anticipation appeared on her features, as if she, in turn, was playing a silent match with her heart: Would Ahmed keep his promise? Would he prove in front of everyone that his skill wasn't just passing words, but a vibrant reality?
And at that moment, the field became for her a stage for testing dreams, and a test of a heart that was slowly beginning to intersect with hers.
