First Night

On the night of her marriage, a woman lies beside a man who is finally allowed to touch her. As the hours stretch between anticipation and silence, memories surface—of desire once denied, of love that never found permission, and of scars carried quietly into adulthood.

Told through intimate, shifting perspectives, First Night explores the fragile space between longing and obligation, truth and the lies we choose to live with. It is a story about intimacy without certainty, marriage without illusion, and the quiet compromises that shape a woman's life.

Haunting and deeply introspective, First Night examines what it means to be chosen, to be wanted, and to surrender—not to love, but to the inevitability of becoming a wife.
