When I saw what happened, I ran as fast as I could. I couldn't just wonder if she was going to be okay.
I was devestated to have to leave my parents. As I turned around to see them one last time, I saw my mother fainted in my father's arms. I couldn't leave like this.
I know but you must. You will have a better life there and more opportunities than Iran can provide you.
I don't want to go to Austria.
My father was shocked to see me, but he understood.
Marjane what are you doing here?
I am trying to explain to her moving to Austria is the best thing for her right now.
Mom you're awake!
We quickly rushed to the hospital. Neither of us said anything the entire ride.
I cared about my father's opinion a lot, and even though I didn't want to leave my home, he was right. I would be safer and be able to get a better education. I could focus less on my religion and more on other parts of my identity.
I agreed to go, partly for me, but also partly for them. My parents care deeply about me and always help me put my best step forward.
If this is what you guys think is the best for me, then I will go.
The next morning I returned to the airport accompanied by both of my parents. This time I didn't turn back.
