## Prompt

```text
Create a cute hand-drawn Japanese chibi illustration of {scene}. Use a soft traditional colored-pencil and crayon drawing style, with visible sketchy pencil strokes, slightly rough imperfect outlines, gentle pastel coloring, and a handmade children’s storybook feel. Characters should have oversized heads, tiny bodies, simple oval black eyes, tiny smiling mouths, rosy cheeks, and expressive innocent faces. Give them natural, adorable poses and interactions, with clothing and hairstyles matching the requested scene. Keep the composition clean and minimal on a plain white background, with plenty of negative space. Add small hand-drawn decorative elements such as hearts, sparkles, or motion lines around the characters where appropriate. Soft pastel palette, subtle paper texture, delicate linework, slightly imperfect coloring, cozy wholesome romantic atmosphere, full-body composition, centered characters, high-quality illustration.
