This was the last chapter of the graphic novel. Marji was doing bad in school because she was disrespectful to her teachers. Finally her parents decided to send her to Austria to study. Marji figured out that they were not going to come with her, or live with her ever again. They would only visit. She was scared to experience something so new to her. On the last page of the book it said: "I couldn't just go. I turned around to see them one last time." Showing an image of her mother in her fathers arms, the caption read: "It would have been better just to go."
This didn't make sense to me. Was her mother dead? Had her mother passed out? Was this image setting up the plot for the next book? Was it supposed to be unclear what happened to her mother? The fact that I don't understand what happened makes me want to read the second part, (Story of a Return) because it will have answers to the questions I wonder about the first book.
