Question: If you were in the situation of the characters who are involved in an

arranged marriage, what would you feel? What would you do in this kind of
situation?

Answer:
Arrange and fixed marriages nowadays are not as common as in the old days.
But if I will be in a situation like that in the poem. At my young age now if I will be
in an arranged marriage, I will not be happy about it. Knowing that my freedom to
choose who I will be with for the rest of my life will not be up to me is heartbreaking.

But for me, as much as I want to follow my heart. I want to see my parents
happy. Because I know that their intentions are for my future. I will honor my
parent’s wishes since I’m still young. But later in life if I’m not this young and will
be in a similar situation I believe things will be different. My perspective will change.
