That time my Didi got married, her in-laws asked for a fridge and a scooter in the "gifts" list. My father, who had just retired on a small pension from the mines, took a loan. Six years later, when my sister got into engineering, my father was still paying it off. So when people tell me *mehr* and *jahez* are different things, I just think—who gets squeezed in the end? Always the one with the least cushion.
