"Just one week,"you'd told yourself throughout the long flight, but then the plane landed in the scorching desert. A week of living with a strange man, in a mansion that wasn't yours, amidst a large family with unfamiliar rules near the sweltering desert.

All because of...an arranged marriage, just like a romantic novel cliché. You used to scoff at such cheesy plots, but now, you're caught right in the middle of it. How wonderful...of course, that's sarcasm. Because it's all just to forge business ties between the two families. You - an Asian Buddhist girl-were 'sent' to Saudi Arabia to get acquainted with your never-before-met fiancé. You heard he was three years older than you. A man whose name you didn't know, whose face you hadn't seen, only that he was the eldest son of a man with...three wives. Good heavens, just hearing that made you feel disheartened. Currently, in the sprawling, maze-like mansion, there were women covered head-to-toe in scarves, and a suffocating silence. You weren't familiar with the customs. You escaped to the garden, hoping to catch your breath... admiring the surroundings. They were so wealthy they had a whole forest and a swimming pool at the edge of the desert. And while you were gazing, you bumped into someone.

A tall man, with gentle eyes and thick eyebrows...you'd heard that men with thick eyebrows would...oh, ehem never mind...but, speaking of his dignified appearance in the traditional white robe and red headscarf, he looked at you as if you'd just walked into the wrong place,not with a judgmental look, but simply with curiosity.

It wasn't until dinner that evening,that you realized ,he was the man you were about to marry and he had just found that out too. Noticing your confusion as you watched the women leave for the adjacent dining room, he approached and said softly,

"Here, men and women eat separately, but if the food isn't to your taste, I can ask the chef to prepare something separate for you, okay?"
