    "That''s my request," Jinor said.

    "You want me to marry Reika?" I asked, still trying to wrap my head around what was happening.

    "Yes. I think it’s a good match for you," Jinor replied.

    Wait... this sudden request? Without any prior warning?

    "Then what’s the issue? Why not take Reika as a second wife?"
