Chapter One

Some things belong to you and will always be yours. Do not interfere in matters that don’t concern you because the more you do, the more you exhaust yourself. Be patient and honest with what you want and deserve. The feeling of love comes to humankind naturally. You do not have to chase after it. You must and should always be in control of yourself and your goals in life. Remember always to be good to those who don’t consider you as a person in general. Who knows if they might be natural diamonds and have a change of mind? It may not be about you, but it could help somehow. 

Sara felt all her burden disbanded from her back as she listened overjoyed to her mother, who also didn’t expect the American embassy to grant them a visa to stay in Germany. They are allowed to remain until Sara completes Hochschule. In comparison to the United States of America, it’s like a college or general university. “I still can’t comprehend this because as I sat on the sofa, I was already at the urge to give up before the call came in.” Sara’s mum rejoiced. “Mum, as I said, nothing is impossible, and I think Dad would be so proud of us,” Sara exclaimed, hanging her mum. “Of course, darling”. Maria Tonoyan, Sara’s mother, returned the comforting hug from her only child.
The family traces back to Armenia. That explains their surnames. Their family is quite an ancient one. Her two-member internal family is the fifth generation in the States. Her aunt’s family also reside in the USA with minimum contact. Their departure is in a few days, and even though this decision is a big step in Sara’s life, the ready face and vim project something far more than sadness. One could say she is different. The brave girl had already turned into a sad kitten as she left her only home. All her childhood experiences came flying before her eyes. Her first time in California, the family’s big house, her first American friend, the friendly kids at school, and her most cherished memory: her acceptance as an American citizen. Before Sara could grab what was happening, her plane spread its wings, heading towards the white clouds. Reality was closing up on her.  Sara is a nerdy, beautiful girl who wears spectacles from time to time, the “Google glasses,” her mother would say. Her height could be compared to the standard stem of an apple tree.
Above all, one could deduce that she was one of the masterpieces of the Greek gods without her glasses. A true beauty inherited from her mother. Long hair with Armenian facial features. She isn’t a fashionista but dresses what the popular kids call “okay.” Her naturally shaped chin depicts her pointed nose and pretty eyebrows. Sara is currently twenty-two years of age. That’s about five years after moving to Germany. On her typical day, she takes the street tram to her Hochschule. She will be graduating in a couple of months. Before the tram reached her destination, she would descend to a station without logical reason and walk about a few meters to her Hochschule.
