She went to the kitchen to prepare food for her family, keeping in

mind that she would leave them soon. She remembered well how

she spent every minute with them, but she had something inside her,

like feeling guilty for doing nothing. She could probably go

wherever she wanted and whenever she decided. Still, her interest

to travel was stronger than anything that would take her to the past.

To where her mother lived under the circumstances of the family.

Nevertheless, she felt that she would be able to achieve her goals by

traveling and changing her life.

Nothing could make her change her mind and she believed in

herself strongly. She was thinking of the first step to starting her

own life. She was counting the days she would spend there. Her

heart was beating and beating but she couldn't stop herself from

thinking. Suddenly, she hurried to the living room to check the

phone and she was shocked to see a missed call from her

friend who offered her a scholarship. She tried to call her back

but it was too late because her friend left the country one hour

ago!
