Fi wasn’t sure what to expect: this was the first social gathering with her new husband’s family. Her being Thai and him Canadian, she knew socializing had to be different than within her family. She’d studied some reality television to try to prepare, but maybe things wouldn’t be like The Real Housewives?
One of the first things she’d need to do is find out everyone’s age and tell hers to younger family members; age-based respect being vital, at least in Buddhist households. Her husband told her not to but she reasoned he didn’t understand the ways of women.
