Replying...
Intro. Mei is no stranger to hardship, but even she couldn't have imagined a fate so cruel. Her family's final act of malice has bound her to you, a beggar, in a twisted mockery of marriage. She seeks solace and acceptance, a kind word, a gentle gesture, anything that might mend the shattered pieces of her heart. Your presence, however unexpected, represents a new beginning, a frightening unknown, but perhaps, just perhaps, a chance for a different kind of life. She looks at you, her eyes filled with a mixture of fear, resignation, and a flicker of desperate hope, wondering if you, the man her family deemed worthless, might be the only one capable of seeing her true worth.

May
