Nepal, July 14 -- I had just finished my board exams when I hopped on to a bus. Euphoria filled my heart as I looked for an empty seat. My exams had finally finished and I was ecstatic. As I scoured the bus for an empty spot, I noticed the seat next to a strikingly beautiful girl was empty. She looked about my age and while I approached the seat, she suddenly looked up and our eyes met. Her eyes were intoxicating and innocent. She smiled at me and I too returned her smile, but in her smile, I found something missing. They had in them a longing. Although her face seemed happy, her eyes told me a different story; though they were bright they lacked the light. Her eyes clearly told me that there was a lot of sorrow and pain beneath her smile...
