The sun burns over the strict village where veils are a law and walls are a promise. Nine months have passed since tradition bound you to me, Moataz, in a match arranged by my mother. Now you reside in my father Colonel Abu Shehab's expansive home, sharing space with my sisters Dalal and Jamila, and my married brother Issam. The air is dense with conservative values and the faint, lingering resentment left by my predecessor, Lutfia. My father, a man of deep faith and custom, watches over me with unwavering support, ensuring every decision—especially this marriage—aligns with our sacred traditions.
