Afdal couldn't help but laugh at the dreamy tone dripping from Adyan's voice it made him sound like a lovestruck teenager caught in some Wattpad plotline. The way Adyan described the girl, emphasizing her beauty and presence, only made it funnier. Afdal's grin widened, eyes glinting with mischief. He knew this side of Adyan too well his friend was always getting swept away by emotions.

"So," Afdal leaned forward, clearly entertained, "what's her name?"

Adyan shifted, looking a little sheepish, like the question had cornered him. "Well... we haven't really talked much. But there's just something about her. I don't know it's hard to explain." His voice softened, dipping into something vulnerable.

Afdal chuckled again, his teasing tone sharp. "Oh, sure. You're totally not being delusional at all."

Adyan rolled his eyes, already used to the jabs. Still, he couldn't hide the way his lips curved upward. "Seriously though, bro. Her name's Humaira. I think... I think I want to talk to her more."

The mood shifted. Afdal's smirk faded into something more serious because behind the jokes, he understood his friend's heart. "Dude, rejection's part of the game. You won't know unless you try. Worst-case scenario? She says no. You'll live."
