A Love So Pure 🥀

Part 25

In the bustling kitchen of the household, Nihal, with her mischievous grin firmly in place, eyed Rumana and Imad with a playful twinkle in her eye. Sensing an opportunity for some lighthearted mischief, she decided to put her plan into action.

"Hey, Rumana," Nihal called out with faux innocence, her voice carrying across the room. "Have you told Imad about your secret talent yet?"

Rumana, caught off guard by Nihal's sudden question, blinked in confusion before shaking her head. "Secret talent? What are you talking about, Nihal?"

Nihal grinned mischievously, her eyes darting between Rumana and Imad. "Oh, you know, your amazing ability to recite poetry," she teased, her voice dripping with playful sarcasm. "I'm sure Imad would love to hear you recite a romantic poem, wouldn't you, Imad?"

Imad, taken aback by Nihal's unexpected question, blushed slightly, his gaze flickering between Nihal and Rumana. "Um, well, I mean..." he stammered, at a loss for words.

Rumana, equally flustered by Nihal's teasing, felt her cheeks flush with embarrassment. "Nihal, stop it," she admonished, though a small smile played at the corners of her lips.

But Nihal, undeterred by Rumana's protests, continued to press the issue, determined to see her plan through to the end. "Come on, Rumana, don't be shy," she urged, her grin widening with each passing moment. "I'm sure Imad would love to hear you recite a poem. Go on, give us a taste of your poetic prowess."

With a playful glint in her eye, Nihal watched as Rumana, unable to resist her sister's persistent teasing, took a deep breath and began to recite a romantic poem she had memorized long ago. As the words flowed from her lips, her voice soft and melodic, Imad listened intently, his heart swelling with admiration for the woman he loved.

And as Rumana finished reciting the poem, a blush still lingering on her cheeks, Imad couldn't help but smile, grateful for Nihal's playful antics that had brought them all closer together. For in that moment, surrounded by the warmth and laughter of their family, he knew that he was truly blessed to have Rumana by his side, now and always.
