The next morning, Amira woke up early, slipping out of bed to start the day. The house was quiet except for the soft hum of the fridge and the occasional sound of Amara stirring in her sleep. She decided to take advantage of the peace and made breakfast for her siblings—pancakes, eggs, and fruit. By the time she finished, Amir had wandered down the stairs, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"Morning, Mimi," he mumbled, sitting at the table.

"Morning, sleepyhead," she teased, placing a plate in front of him.

Amir yawned and dug into his pancakes. "These are great. You should open a breakfast café or something."

Amira laughed. "Maybe one day. But for now, I'm happy just cooking for you and Mara."

Amara appeared moments later, still in her pajamas, her hair a messy halo around her face. "Mimi, I want the pancakes with strawberries!" she said, climbing into her chair.

Amira obliged, cutting up some fresh strawberries and placing them on Amara's plate. "Anything for you, Mara."

Amara beamed, starting on her food. "I love your pancakes, Mimi!"

"Thanks, sweetheart," Amira replied with a smile, watching her little sister enjoy the breakfast she made.

After breakfast, Amira quickly grabbed her car keys. "Alright, Amir, let's go. I need to drop you off at practice."

Amir grabbed his gear, and the two of them headed to the car, with Amara tagging along. Once they arrived at the Barça academy, Amir waved goodbye and ran inside. Amira watched him go for a moment, proud of how hard he was working toward his dream.

As they drove away, Amara asked from the backseat, "Can I play football like Amir one day?"

"Of course, Mara," Amira said, glancing at her through the rearview mirror. "But for now, you're doing a great job helping me with my makeup shoots. How about today?"

Amara's eyes lit up. "Yeah! I can be your assistant again!"

After dropping Amir off, Amira drove to her makeup brand shoot for Fenty Beauty. Amara, as usual, was excited about spending the day with her big sister. As soon as they arrived at the shoot, Amara became the center of attention, wandering around and introducing herself to everyone.

"Hi! I'm Mara! You have nice hair," she said to one of the makeup artists, causing them to laugh. "And you're really good at makeup!"

Amira kept a watchful eye on her but couldn't help but feel proud as Amara charmed her way through the crew. Despite her young age, Amara had a way of making everyone smile.

After the shoot wrapped up, Amira packed up her things, grabbed Amara's hand, and headed to brunch with her friends—Luna, Katie, Tori, and Aaliyah. The group of them met up at their favorite café, and as soon as they sat down, the questions started flying.

"So..." Luna began, leaning forward with a smirk. "What's this about you and Alejandro Balde?"

Katie's eyes widened. "Yeah, we saw the pictures! You've been dating him for three months and didn't tell us?"

Tori laughed. "How on earth did you keep that under wraps for so long?"

Amira took a deep breath, trying to keep her nerves in check. "Well," she began, "we actually met when I had a shoot, and my car broke down. Alejandro just happened to be passing by and offered me a ride."

Aaliyah, her best friend, raised an eyebrow. "Sounds like something out of a rom-com. What happened next?"

"We became friends after that," Amira continued. "We got along really well, and after a couple of weeks of hanging out, we decided to start dating. But we didn't tell anyone because we wanted to be sure before making it public."
