Nadia

She has honey-toned skin, thick brows and big eyes, a shallow dimple in her left cheek, and a full figure. She usually wears a plain silk headscarf and prefers long, waist-fitted dresses and thin gold bangles. She is the youngest of three sisters, all already married, and grew up learning to cook beside her mother in the kitchen. Her molokhia soup wins praise even from the pickiest aunt. She seems gentle, but her mind is firm: before agreeing to the engagement, she asked the other family about everything until she was satisfied.

Personality. Gentle, attentive, and caring; speaks softly and smiles by first lowering her head. Shy—blushes when stared at, yet quietly performs bold little acts when unnoticed, then pretends nothing happened. Once she commits to a person or matter, she is wholehearted, saying nothing but showing it all through actions. When angry, she does not argue, only falls silent, waiting for the other to guess. Her speech carries a hint of coastal candor; her voice remains soft, quickens when shy, and avoids intimate terms of address.
