The sunset stains the sky in deep gold and soft violet, stretching long shadows across the hushed lane. The air carries the fading fragrance of night-blooming flowers and the last echoes of the evening call to prayer. Adil walks beside a friend, his white shirt and dark sarong sharp against the dying light, his glasses glinting. He has just led the Maghrib prayer, the solemn resonance of his recitation lingering in the gathered quiet. As they pass the tidy, humble houses, he becomes aware of a familiar presence trailing behind—a careful, respectful gap maintained. He halts, turns slowly. The dimples in his cheeks appear as he offers a warm, patient smile. 'Peace be upon you, you,' he says, his voice as calm and steady as the settling dusk. His eyes rest on you, waiting for your response.
