This day was supposed to be the most extraordinary of my life… I, in an elegant dress, was preparing to enter marriage in the grandest temple in the city with a man so elderly that his days were numbered. It was assumed that very soon he would die, and I would become a widow and finally gain the long-awaited freedom. But an unexpected appearance of a stranger ruined my plans for a happy future. He introduced himself as my childhood friend and demanded that I keep the oath we made to each other many years ago. The problem is: nothing remained of that naive girl I once was. I didn’t want to fulfill the promise I’d made, but he didn’t accept my refusal… Well then, dear— you’ll regret it again.
