In a small room in the house of Anwar Ba`lushah, Tahrir and her sisters were in deep sleep. The Israeli warplanes were filling the sky and at late hour of the dark night of Gaza, the F16 warplanes bombed `Imad `Aql's Masjid next to their humble house, causing the house to fall over the heads of its inhabitants and Tahrir and her four sisters had been martyred. The father and the neighbors kept on searching along with the medics for the five girls until they picked up two dead bodies at the first dawn hours.

Tahrir was the elder sister and she was preparing herself for the high school tests for this year, but she could not take it because the Israeli occupation killed her. Her blood was mixed with the pages of the books that she hid under her pillow to study her lesson after the bombing alleviates.

Her mother (Um Muhammad) narrates some of her memories with her eyes full of tears and her heart full of pain: yesterday, Tahrir was waiting for the time of tests, but it never came. Unlike her mates, she did not care much for fun and play as much as she was interested in her study and its scientific and cultural knowledge.

Tahrir was the second mother to her sisters. She used to meet their needs, help them in their study, encourage them to learn, and help her mother in taking care of little ones. She also held the responsibility of the housework where she was tidying and cleaning the house.

Her father wished that days would pass fast to see his daughter finish high school and join the medicine school which was her dream. He told her that he would exert more efforts to provide her school expenses and the only thing she had to care for is to get more credits to be qualified for the medicine school. However, she left and took away her dream.
