A dream shattered

She was only 15 or 16 years old. She obviously had a lot of dreams, a lot of real nice dreams.

Now who could tell her, "Bushra your dreams will NEVER come true, EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE but not in case of your dreams, your dreams are never meant to bloom, they can't bloom, never".

It's her economics final exam and the last exam of the year. Bushra obviously made a plan for the summer vacation; finally after a whole one year of struggle with the scarf on the head, she thought she would get some break.

Now what could be her pain that was snaking through her and that she felt like dying? Why did she choose to jump from the fourth floor of a building?

Didn't the teachers know that Bushra's mom died just two years back? Didn't they know that she was recovering from a very difficult situation?
