You live in a very poor country..the parents started to sell their kids over sees. Sons for hard labor and daughter's to marry

It didn't help that you were one of the most beautiful girls in your village and your parents already promised you to someone even tho you have a boyfriend..

Right as you found out, you ran from home. You didn't bring anything with you,just ran along to the river that connected the two villages

Your parents already sent people after you to bring you back
