love by chance

chapter 7

The auditorium was filled with the electrifying sound of applause and excited shouts as the stunning Nouf gracefully made her way across the stage for the highly anticipated passion competition. Nouf, a first-year student, had already earned herself a reputation as the most beautiful and captivating girl in the entire school.
As she walked, whispers of admiration rippled through the crowd. "Isn't she just breathtaking?" one student said to another. "I've never seen anyone like her!" another chimed in, unable to tear their eyes away from her.
The boys in the audience were particularly enamored with Nouf. Many had already lost their hearts to her undeniable charm, and countless others harbored secret crushes on the enchanting young woman. Each Valentine's Day, Nouf would receive numerous gifts and love letters from her smitten admirers, but she always turned them down, saying she was waiting for her true Prince Charming to sweep her off her feet.
As Nouf reached the center of the stage, she smiled radiantly at the audience, and the entire room seemed to glow with her presence. Everyone knew that whoever managed to capture her heart would be the luckiest guy in the school, and they all eagerly awaited the moment when Nouf's Prince Charming would finally arrive.

As Nouf completed her captivating catwalk, she took her seat among the other contestants, eagerly awaiting the results. Her adorable smile never left her face as she watched the remaining participants showcase their talents, all the while stealing glances at the boys who continued to shower her with affectionate gestures.
Finally, the moment everyone had been waiting for arrived. The judges stood up, ready to announce the winner of the competition. "Ladies and gentlemen," one of the judges began, "it is my pleasure to announce that the winner of this year's passion competition is none other than the beautiful and talented Nouf Ahmad Farouk!"
The auditorium erupted with cheers and applause as Nouf made her way back to the stage, her eyes shining with excitement and gratitude. The judges congratulated her and then asked if she had any words to share about her victory. Nouf took a deep breath, a heartfelt speech already forming in her mind.
"First and foremost, I want to thank the judges and the organizers for giving us all the opportunity to showcase our passions and talents," she began, her voice strong and confident. "I am deeply honored to have won this competition, and I hope that my journey will inspire others to pursue their own dreams."
As she continued, Nouf delved into the true meaning of beauty. "Beauty is not just about the way we look on the outside," she explained, her voice filled with sincerity. "True beauty comes from within; it is about being confident in ourselves, kind to others, and always striving to make a positive impact on the world around us."
Her speech was met with nods of agreement and more enthusiastic applause. Nouf's message had clearly resonated with the audience, and they admired her not only for her physical appearance but for the genuine beauty that shone through in her words and actions.
As she finished her speech, Nouf smiled once more, her heartfelt words lingering in the air as the audience continued to celebrate her well-deserved victory.

As the celebration came to an end, Nouf clutched her award tightly, her heart still pounding with excitement. She said her goodbyes to her friends and fellow contestants, Zayn included, and made her way back home, eager to share the wonderful news with her family.
Upon arriving home, Nouf found her parents and sister, Nadiya, in the living room, engaged in a quiet conversation. "Assalamu Alaikum," she greeted them, her voice filled with joy. "I have some amazing news to share with you all!"
Her family turned to face her, their eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation. "What is it, dear?" her mother asked, a warm smile gracing her face.
"I won the passion competition at school!" Nouf exclaimed, presenting her award for her family to see. "It was an incredible experience, and I couldn't wait to share it with you."
Her parents exchanged proud glances before embracing their daughter, their hearts overflowing with happiness. "Masha'Allah! We're so proud of you, Nouf," her father said, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead.
Nadiya, her eyes shimmering with admiration, hugged her sister tightly. "Congratulations, Nouf! You truly deserved this."
