      It sounds super cringe and made-up but that's just one of those weird things that actually happened and we weren't even rich or anything. I think my parents insisted on paying for everything they could but the whole dinner was something that was happening _to_ us whether we liked it or not

Then, the kid sneaks MC past the guards (and MC straight up kills them all one after another), and he faces off the villain and saves her and all three escape as a pseudo-nuclear family.

      so true. Like the middle east and many countries there also has woods and snow on ice -capped mountains and green pastures, fertile valleys with rivers . It's like going to America and only showing the desert part lol. Although the middle east does have alot of desert like Sahara desert or the Empty Quarter desert in Arabian peninsula it's not all like that. They make it look like everywhere is dusty and sand everywhere you go ,every place you go dirt poor too like slum or ghetto or run down village.
      Ive been to the middle-east so I know from experience the reality. I've visited a few countries. Memories I'll cherish for life. I'll be forever restless because of it. Met and made friends with different beautiful people , beautiful inside and out. Most people are happy and content wether they are wealthy or not. I'm not Arabs (I also know that the middle east is made up of different ethnicities not all same race or Arab) either. Another thing I've found is Arabs are good looking. I know from personal experience. But you only ever see in 99% of movies from Hollywood or American shows the kinda unattractive, like as if theyre deliberately made them look like bad scary guys or unkempt and unhygienic. While there are places/people like that over there,same can be found everywhere ,places/people like that. It's like visiting a big city and only showing a bad run down neighbourhood. There's good and bad everywhere you go. They just make it seem it's everywhere and nearly everybody like that.
      The middle east (most of it) is truly blessed with natural wild beauty,very rich in history and culture, and the food amazing.
