Chapter 137 - The long-awaited day(part136)

(On the evening of that day, after the conversation between Ahmed and Misaki ended, Misaki returned home thinking about the request from Ahmed's family. She was imagining the meeting between the two families, and trying to picture how everyone would communicate despite the differences in language and culture.)

The next day…

Misaki sits with her parents in the living room and tells them about Ahmed's family's desire to meet them and thank them for the kindness they showed him throughout the past period.

(Misaki's parents look at each other for a moment.)

Misaki's mother: "Ahmed's family came here from Yemen?"

Misaki: "Yes. And they would like to get to know you both."

(The mother smiles kindly, while Misaki's father nods thoughtfully.)

Misaki's father: "If they are Ahmed's family, then they are welcome. We have heard so much about them."

(Misaki's eyes widen slightly with happiness.)

Misaki: "So… you both agree?"

Her mother (smiling): "Of course."

(Misaki breathes a sigh of relief, then quickly takes out her phone and sends a message to Ahmed.)

"They agreed."

On the other side…

(Ahmed was helping Yoshika solve some school assignments when the message arrived. He reads it, and a wide smile spreads across his face.)

Ahmed: "It seems the next mission has begun."

(Honoka and little Yoshika look at him in surprise.)

Ahmed: "Misaki's family has agreed to the meeting."

(Everyone's faces light up with joy.)

The next few days pass quickly…

And preparations for the long-awaited visit begin.

Ahmed's mother is keen on choosing some simple Yemeni gifts that she brought with her from home, while his brothers discuss enthusiastically what they will say when they meet Misaki's family.

As for Ahmed…

He was thinking about something completely different.

Ahmed (to himself): "I will be spending long hours translating…"

(He laughs lightly as he imagines himself as a translator between two whole families.)

And finally…

The appointed day arrives.

Everyone wears their best clothes, and signs of excitement and anticipation appear on their faces.

Misaki sits beside Ahmed, while Honoka and Yoshika stand near them.

Ahmed carries the gifts carefully, then looks at his family.

Ahmed: "Is everyone ready?"

(Everyone nods enthusiastically.)

After that…

The group sets off toward the Tanaka family home, where a special meeting awaits them—one that might be the beginning of a new friendship between two families from different worlds, brought together by fate under the same sky.
