Is this what the future holds? Clean streets, no illnesses, a controlled life? Arranged marriages? Cassia is looking forward to her Match. It is a day when she gets to dress up and the family get a wonderful meal at the ceremony. As she watches the screen while the other eligible girls are informed of their matches, she wonders who she will be matched with. Probably a boy from another village. Girls don't get to meet their matches until after the ceremony. But when her name is called, she is matched with Xander -- her best friend. Is this a good thing? Everyone agrees that this is a good match. And she already knows him and likes him so that should be great. But when she opens her viewscreen, it is not Xander she sees.
