It was not at all easy for those who knew her, to say goodbye to Lorena, the high school student from Kavaja who passed away after a heart attack, when she had started to dream and build her life, away from pain, the suburbs and closer the twinkling lights of downtown, love and catwalks.

The heart attack took his life while he was enjoying the engagement he had recently crowned with the boy he loved, as well as the title "Top Model" received in the beauty pageant "Miss & Mr. Kavaja" at the end of last year.

He had not yet closed the wound that had been opened by the untimely death of his younger sister, nor the cardiac disorder that hung over his head like the sword of Damocles, but life was smiling on him. Until the fateful morning of January 25, when her heart suffered the fatal blow, opening a new wound in the Bërdufi family.

Petriti, Fiona, Ajla and Kornela still can't believe that she is no more, while they go to comfort her family together with Myzejen Konduri, the producer of the beauty pageant that gave life to Lorena's dream. She believed that she would succeed, for herself, but above all for her family.

After the death of her sister, Lorena had started to build dreams, hopes to change her fate. Due to medical checks and treatments in Holland, he had missed a year of school, but he returned to it again and this year he graduated from the "Aleksandër Moisiu" gymnasium in Kavaja.

After school, he worked in a market to help his family. He tried to follow the doctors' advice. He should not have succumbed to strong emotions, but life is full of them.

Despite the economic conditions, the parents had done their best to treat their daughters by sending them abroad to consult with doctors, but death came cold hitting the family twice in less than three years and leaving grief behind .

Her dreams were suddenly cut in half, leaving behind a sad story. The story of Lorena who was stuck on the borders between her childhood spent in the former premises of the paper factory in Kavajë adapted to the apartment and the beginning of a new life, amidst the lights and the desire to shine on the catwalks with her elegance.

Stuck between dreams to remind us all that life is beautiful, as sad as it is, it is short and in a breath it can be gone./TCh/
