Anis PoV
Anis opened her little eyes. She blinked sleepily, her world coming into focus as the morning light filtered softly through the curtains. Her eyes settled on the pink, sparkly octopus nestled beside her, and a delighted smile spread across her face. It was her new friend, a gift from her mama and dada.
She reached out with chubby fingers, grasping one of the plush tentacles, and giggled to herself. The octopus was soft and comforting, its glittery surface catching the light in a way that fascinated her. She loved the feel of it against her skin, a reminder of the love her parents had for her.
"Mama, Da," she babbled happily, her voice a soft coo as she hugged the octopus closer. In her mind, she could picture her mama's gentle smile and her dada's warm embrace, both of which made her feel so loved and secure.
"Hey, Anis," her da said as he looked down at her. His usually neat black hair was messy, but in a handsome way.
