Malis cried even harder. She hugged her mother tightly.

Mom's words made Malice feel better. She knew Mom was right.

That night, Malis slept soundly. She dreamed of her bright future.

Malice hugged herself tightly, as if trying to keep herself from breaking apart.

Malis studied hard. She spent almost all of her time in the library, in the classroom, and at her desk.

Malis smiled faintly, her tears beginning to dry. She knew the road ahead was long and full of challenges.

Suddenly, there was a soft knock on the door. Malis quickly wiped away her tears and opened the door. Her mom was standing there with a gentle smile.
