The Dowry

 The Dowry is the last chapter of the book. This chapter is about Marji  leaving school because of her behavior in class with her teachers. She gets warnings until her parents get tired and finally decide to send  her to Austria to finish her studies. Marji thought and then figured out that she was traveling alone, without a companion (her parents) to be with her. She knew that she would only see them in their visits, and not actually live with them. When she realized that, she got scared and didnt know how to feel, because this was a complete new experience. Marji turned around one last time to see her parents and then left to Austria. She knew that there was something left to do, but I guess that that will happen in the next book. This reminded me of the first time I traveled alone in a plane. I thought that I would never see my parents again, and that I would have no one to rely on. I was so frightened that I didn't know what to do. Even if I knew that my sister was going to wait me on the other side of the world,  I was scared. One thing different was that I knew that I was going to see my parents again, and she knew she didn't, but I know how she might felt in that moment.
