**Expanded Version:**
Minea and Chamroeun sat quietly on the edge of their cozy bed, their eyes fixed on the doorway of the living room. The two siblings had been eagerly waiting all afternoon, their small faces filled with anticipation. Today was a special day—mom and dad had gone out briefly, but to Minea and Chamroeun, it felt like an eternity. Their little hearts fluttered with curiosity and excitement as they watched the hallway, hoping to catch a glimpse of their parents returning home.
Minea, the elder sister, was the more observant of the two. She sat cross-legged, her hands resting gently on her lap, her gaze attentive and focused. Her young mind was filled with thoughts about her parents—what they might bring back, how their day had gone, and how happy she would feel once they saw her smiling face. Chamroeun, her younger brother, was full of energy but now quiet, his wide eyes darting around anxiously. He clutched his small teddy bear tightly, seeking comfort in its familiar presence.
The room was filled with a soft, warm light, illuminating their faces and casting gentle shadows on the walls. Outside, the sounds of the neighborhood carried in—birds chirping, distant vehicles passing by, and the occasional laughter of children playing nearby. Despite these distractions, Minea and Chamroeun’s focus remained unwavering on the door, waiting patiently with a mixture of hope and curiosity.
Their parents had left early in the morning, promising to return before dinner. The children had spent the day playing quietly, trying to stay busy, but their minds kept drifting back to the anticipation of seeing their mom and dad walk through the door. Minea had even set up a small “welcome home” sign on the wall, hoping it would make their parents feel loved and appreciated upon their return.
As the minutes ticked by, Minea gently brushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear. She whispered softly to Chamroeun, “Do you think they’re coming soon?” Chamroeun nodded, clutching his teddy even tighter, his eyes shining with excitement. “Yes, they’ll be home soon,” he replied confidently, though a hint of nervousness was in his voice.
Suddenly, they heard the faint sound of footsteps approaching. Both children sat up straighter, their hearts pounding with anticipation. The moment was almost here. The door handle turned slowly, and in walked their mom and dad, tired but smiling. The children’s faces lit up with joy as they jumped off the bed to greet them.
Their parents knelt down, opening their arms wide for hugs. The children ran into their embrace, feeling safe and loved. In that moment, all the waiting, watching, and hoping came to fruition. Minea and Chamroeun’s patience had paid off, and their hearts were filled with happiness as their family was finally reunited.
