This is the story of a boy.
He comes seventh in his family. There were ten brothers in total, but two of them passed away early. Now, eight brothers remain, and he is the seventh among them.
It was the day I truly got to know him for the first time—how intense his anger could be.
It had only been about ten days since our marriage, and we were finally leaving for our trip after the wedding. I was extremely excited. After all, I was newly married, full of dreams and happiness.
We had already left for the journey when, on the way, I called my mother to tell her, "Mom, we've started."
But suddenly, her tone changed. She became angry and anxious. She had always been a little insecure about me going far away. Life had shown her many difficult situations, and because of that, she constantly feared that something might happen to me.
I was her first child to get married in the family, and everything was new for her. She didn't fully understand how things change after marriage… that a husband begins to take a central place in a woman's life.
And somewhere between her fear and my new life, everything started to feel a little complicated.
