One afternoon, after class, Nisa lingered in the hallway, waiting for the other students to leave. She wanted to ask Jisan a question about a recent history topic that had piqued her interest. As the classroom emptied, she nervously approached his desk.
"Mr. Jisan?" she began, her voice soft but curious. "Do you have a moment to talk about today's lesson? The way you explained the war strategies...it was really interesting."
Jisan looked up from his papers, smiling warmly. "Of course, Nisa. What's on your mind?"
Nisa hesitated, then continued, "You mentioned how history can repeat itself if we're not careful. Do you think that's true for all parts of life? Like, not just in wars, but in relationships and personal choices?"
Jisan paused for a moment, clearly impressed by her thoughtful question. "That's a very insightful thought, Nisa. History is often a reflection of human nature. The decisions we make, both as individuals and as societies, tend to follow patterns. It's up to us to learn from the past to avoid repeating the same mistakes."
Nisa nodded, absorbing his words. There was something about Jisan's calm voice and the way he spoke with such depth that stirred something within her. She had never felt this kind of connection with a teacher before.
