Brandy: My heart aches as my spouse feels embarrassed and disappointed by our situation. When I walked down the aisle, I could sense the mocking laughter. Our marriage was arranged against my will, and my husband dreams of getting rid of me. His family even resorted to making me starve to lose weight. I'm left feeling isolated, trying to avoid confrontation and just survive each day. Storm: I always anticipated my father's choice for my bride, but this... she's the polar opposite of what I imagined. She's heavyset, eats voraciously, and has a disorganized nature. It seems like nothing she does is right, yet strangely, she consumes my thoughts. I find myself fantasizing about her in the shower, her image fueling my desires. I don't desire her, yet I'm drawn to her inexplicably. Her presence is driving me mad, but I'll fight the urge. I must, for my own sanity."
