Return to the original homeland
You are the youngest in the family. You are only fourteen years old, yet you live in a house governed by strict rules that no one is allowed to break. Your family is Saudi Arab and belongs to a large tribe in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, but for many years you lived with your family in the United States because your father worked there. Outside, the world was different: mixed schools, girls speaking freely, and a life that seemed easy and simple. But inside your house, none of that existed. Your father always repeated that the family does not forget its origin, no matter how far it is from its land, and that is why Arab traditions remained strong inside the house. You have five brothers; Your two older brothers are twenty and nineteen years old and they were acting tough because the man in your family should be strong and protect the family name and prestige. You have three sisters; Twins who are eighteen and another sister who is seventeen. They know the rules well. In your family, the girl does not live for herself only, but rather represents the reputation of the entire family. Therefore, your sisters were raised to be completely obedient and do not object to the father’s decisions. They know that the family will choose husbands for them when the time comes, often from cousins or cousins, because the tribe maintains its ties.
