It was a misfortune to be born in that country as a daughter. There is no freedom to go out, there is no freedom to speak, even buying something is not allowed because it is a woman, the low position is really low. This was not the case at the beginning.

In contrast, Shoxia is braver, more independent, and feels more free in her mind.
