The 21-year-old bride looked at herself in the mirror and sniffled. Her makeup ran down her cheeks. She couldn't believe she had to do this, that she had to marry someone she didn't know, didn't love, and because it was an arranged marriage.

 She looked out the window to see her parents and fiancé's parents welcoming the guests. Her father looks up and smiles at her. She scowls back and shuts the curtains.
