An arranged marriage

Jaime, while she lived in America, was the daughter to first generation immigrants. She knew both English and Chinese as her first languages. She lived at home with her parents and as the oldest of many siblings. She was privately taught from home and she almost never left the house. By free will? By protective parents? She didn’t really know. She had desires to see the world but she also felt safe in her own home and in her own bed.

Her beautiful pale skin and (as customary with Asian females) youthful good looks would have made her quite an eye catcher for young and older men alike. Alas, between her studies and at home duties, Jaime would have never taken a love interest. Her 18th birthday had passed recently and she was expected to work soon or find a husband that would provide for her. This was another demand made by her intrusive parents.

This however would be coming sooner rather than later..
