In her cycle all her friends are looking forward to getting married to affluent handsome men that would elevate their status. but what intrigued amna more is that, none of them were looking forward to work hard to achieve that affluency for themselves. And at that, an epiphany dawned on her resulting to a conclusion.

And that was nothing other than becoming one of the affluent women in the society and a registered nurse. No! She won't sit at the table where all they discuss about is getting married to influential people just to be famous instead, she'll work hard and late on becoming one. Despair should be out of the equation because she won't ever encounter that and if it happens she does, she won't let it monopolize her. She made peace with the fact that at some point in her life she'll be married to someone who may or may not block her ambition. But before that, starting from now wouldn't hurt.. would it?

As the saying goes what a man can do a woman can do, may be not better but you won't know how far you can go if you don't even try.

So, comes what may, she's going to strive, strive to be the nurse she could give up everything for, and to be an independent lady.

But, what would happen when someone out there was after her. Trying all his might for her to acknowledge his existence? What will happen when she's the one he's striving for? And her? She's just striving to make it in life and be the nurse she so badly love to be and maybe, wait for love to find her.
