[Riana](F23Y5TL9) loved waking up early every morning just to hug her papa before he left for work. 'Papa, don’t forget to smile today!' she said, her shiny black hair bouncing as she giggled.

[Papa Akram](YGG432L7) was always so kind and gentle. No matter how tired he was, he came home every evening with a big smile, saying, 'Where is my little sunshine?'

Together, they watered the garden filled with colorful flowers, baked cookies on Fridays, and read bedtime stories like The Magic Moonlight every night.

One day, Papa had to go to another city for work. It was the first time [Riana](F23Y5TL9) would be without him for two whole days.

'I’ll miss you so much, Papa,' [Riana](F23Y5TL9) whispered, holding back tears. 'But I’ll call you every night,' Papa promised with a kiss on her forehead.

While Papa was away, [Riana](F23Y5TL9) kept his pillow beside her, listened to his voice on the phone, and counted hours until he came back.

Finally, the day came! Papa returned home and [Riana](F23Y5TL9) ran into his arms, shouting, 'Don’t ever go away again!'

'I’ll try my best, sweetheart,' Papa said with a warm laugh as he hugged [Riana](F23Y5TL9) tightly.

That night, [Riana](F23Y5TL9) drew a picture of her and Papa under a rainbow. She wrote on top, “Papa is my best friend,” and hung it beside her bed.

[Riana](F23Y5TL9) and her papa continued to do everything together, and she knew in her heart that her papa would always be her best friend forever.
