"More," exclaims the little girl as her eyes shine with excitement. "More, more."
Zeina is swinging on a swing in a small playground in the suburbs of Padua in northern Italy.
It is a normal scene everywhere in the world.
- A desperate mother from Gaza begs for food for her five-month-old baby
- Millions of Middle East children out of school amid education 'disaster'
- What is the UN "list of shame" and why are both Israel and Hamas on it
But two-year-old Zeina cannot move her head normally, and she has deep, still terrible scars on the right side of her face, neck and head.
However, she is currently safe and fed.
And it feels like it's flying.
Zeina is one of 5.000 people who have been allowed to leave Gaza for specialist treatment abroad since the start of the war following the October 7 Hamas attack in southern Israel.
The World Health Organization (WHO) says the war has left more than 22.000 Gazans with life-changing injuries, but since the closure of the Rafah border crossing with Egypt in May, very few have been allowed to leave the Gaza Strip.
"It was a nightmare day," says Zeina's mother Shaima, describing how her daughter was injured while playing in their family's tent in Al-Mawasi, southern Gaza, on March 17.
The family had already fled twice from their home in Han Yunis, first to Rafah, and then to the large "humanitarian zone" in Al-Mawasi, where they thought they would be safe.
Zeina and her four-year-old sister Lana were playing together, hugging and saying to each other "I love you, I love you," when the impact of a projectile was heard nearby, recalls Šaima.
Zeina was terrified and ran, clutching at her mother, who was holding a pot of boiling soup that spilled over her daughter.
"Her face and skin were melting in front of me," says Shaima.
"I picked her up and ran barefoot into the street."
Zeina was treated by Red Cross doctors at the European Hospital in Gaza, where the skin from her father's leg was transplanted, and after she arrived in Egypt, she was transplanted from her own leg.
In September, she was flown from Egypt to Italy for more specialized treatment.
Zeina was joined by Ala, a 17-year-old girl who was seriously injured in an airstrike on her home in Gaza City late last year.
When they met, they immediately established a relationship.
"I immediately turned to her," says Ala.
"She suffered so much pain, she is so small.
"I'm older, and sometimes the pain was too much for me. How is she?"
Ala was trapped under the rubble for 16 hours, and when she was rescued, she learned that her father, a tailor, was dead.
As well as her brothers, Nael, who was a student, and Vael, a medical technician.
Their bodies were never recovered from the ruins of the four-story building where they lived.
"I was awake all the time under the rubble," she tells me.
"I couldn't breathe normally because of the pressure on my chest and body.
"I couldn't move.
"I was just thinking about other members of my family and what happened to them."
In addition to her father and brothers, she also lost her grandmother, grandfather and aunt.
He says they have nothing to do with Hamas, the Palestinian militant group.
"I lost my most loved ones," she says.
"I'm happy to be in Italy for treatment, but I'm sad for Gaza and the people there."
In a statement to the BBC, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) denied targeting civilians, saying they were taking "feasible precautions to mitigate harm to civilians" during their operation to destroy Hamas military capabilities.
According to the Hamas Health Ministry, more than 41.000 people have been killed in Gaza since the beginning of the conflict almost a year ago.
The World Health Organization has repeatedly called for the opening of "multiple corridors for the medical evacuation" of injured Palestinians.
The WHO says that since May, only 219 patients have received permission to go abroad.
Zeina and Ala were evacuated thanks to the persistence of a British charity Save a Child i Children's Relief from the United States (USA).
They worked for months to get them out - begging Israel, Egypt and the US State Department for help.
"Honestly, Zeina and Ala are among the lucky ones who got out," says Nadja Ali of Kinder Relief, which accompanied the girls from Egypt to Italy.
"There are children who were referred to us and who died waiting to go."
It's hard to talk about happiness when you understand the consequences of their injuries.
Both girls are expecting months of painful physiotherapy, followed by many surgeries.
Zeina and Ali are being cared for by one of Italy's best burn specialists.
Dr. Bruno Azena is kind and gentle to them, but he has to tell them the harshest news - that the burns on Ali's legs are so deep that she will never be able to walk normally again.
And Zeina's hair will not grow back on her scarred scalp.
Her mother Šaima is desperate.
She left Gaza hoping for a miracle.
Zeina began to realize that she was different from her sisters.
When she asks Shaima to tie her hair so she can be like other girls, her mother doesn't know what to do or say.
Her husband was not allowed to evacuate with them, so Shaima has to take care of her girls alone, which is difficult both physically and emotionally.
But Shaima adores Zeina and calls her "princess", hiding her tears and fears for the future.
Shaima is also grieving for her mother who died of cancer that had spread because it had not been treated since the beginning of the war.
"The war cost me too much," she says.
"Thank God that we were able to leave, and we left with a miracle.
"I hope that the other injured Palestinians will also be able to go abroad for treatment.
"I always pray to God to protect them and for the war to end."
