Tea Time at Home

This afternoon, a small family sits together in the living room. The mother brings a tray with hot tea and sweets. She is wearing her elegant Türkmen-style ýaglyk, resting softly behind her head. The father sits on the sofa, smiling warmly.

Their son, Aly, helps by placing small plates on the table.

“Thank you, my boy,” the father says.

The family sits together and enjoys their tea. They talk about school, work, and their plans for the weekend. Aly eats a sweet and says, “This is delicious!”

The mother pats his shoulder gently.

“I’m glad you like it,” she says.

The room feels warm, peaceful, and full of love.
