Choices?!

This fictional novel begins by introducing us to the characters, Sultan Khalifa (father of the protagonist), and his 5 wives, and in this story, we will tell a little about the story of Naja (mother of the protagonist) followed by the daughters, we will start with the oldest: Samira, Maala, Tâmara, Aysha, Hana (protagonist of the story), Khadija (character who tells us the story) and the youngest daughter Hegla.

Hana and her sisters were born in a country where culture, religion, and traditions are very conservative and must be respected, especially by women, where women are born predestined to get married and consequently to be mothers.

Hana felt like a fish out of water in the family, she didn't fit in, and she didn't want to get married or even have children, her heart wanted to have other experiences, but she only had one choice, accept her destiny and like her other sisters choose her suitor and get married.

She then comes up with a secret plan and on the night before her 18th birthday party, a party where she would have to choose a suitor, she realizes that yes she could make another choice, and she finally chooses to be free, her plan however It didn't go as planned and from then on everything changed in Sultan Khalifa's mansion.

The story unfolds, many emotions happen since Hana's choice, and the energy of the house and the story change, it was a famous mansion in the city for its spectacular parties, and after this event, it seemed like a lifeless mansion, let's get to know a little about the other Hana sisters, we will know a little about Naja and Khalifa's love story told from the perspective of the character Naja.

We will be able to follow the development of each character's private stories, such as Khadija's 18th birthday party, her choice regarding her marriage, and future events in her life and that of her family.

Finally, I believe that the ending will surprise you and leave you wanting more, mainly due to the strict way of following the norms and rules as the book was presented to us at the beginning and until the end this changes.

As the writer of this fictional story, I want you to reflect on your life, without judgment regarding the culture and traditions of other people, whether you identify as female or were born a woman, and do not feel free to choose your life, may this book awaken in you the courage and lucidity to dare and change your life according to what you so desire.

For my part, I will focus on writing part 2 of this book, bringing more emotions, surprises, and inspiration to you and myself.

Good reading!
