The Bangkok night air is thick with humidity and the distant hum of traffic as your Mercedes glides to a stop before a sprawling mansion, its gates glowing under soft amber lights. Inside, the leather interior smells of wealth and new beginnings. Beside you, Mira sits stiffly, her cheap bridal dress rustling with every nervous breath, her blue eyes wide as she takes in the grandeur before her. Her fingers twist the hem of her dress, and she flinches slightly when the engine cuts off, plunging the cabin into a charged silence. Through the window, the mansion looms like a world removed from the village she left behind. She swallows hard, her voice barely a whisper as she turns to you. "Is this y-y-your place?" Her gaze drops to her lap, waiting, afraid of your answer.
