What can be a good farewell gift to give to my girlfriend?

Last week, her parents got her Engaged to guy a from their Caste. That's how it happens in my country. 4 years of relationship and love we'll have to end now, we have to meet in a few days and break up. It's gonna be very hard since we lived in the same building, and we're friends since childhood all of a sudden she will be married and gone to another City in a different state. Relationships are considered against the religion in most of India, even if you have loads of money you cannot woo your girlfriend's parents if you come from a lower caste.
I'm wondering what can be a good goodbye gift to give her..
Sorry for the bad English.

You seem so "okay" with everything that has just happened. Arent you going to to fight for her? How come you are able to accept the norms of society so easily, you wasted 4yrs together.

@WildHeart
We've had all the fights and discussions, last year we were waiting for right time to ran away after elections in 2019 and she had said she will handle everything in her house till then but this happened so quick and after a person is engaged breaking it bring a huge shame to family..
There are very few sane people on this site, others are just introverts and depressed people bitching about their first world problems, I don't do that doesn't mean I'm "Okay" Only God knows how much pain I'm suffering from. Each day seeing people congratulating her on Facebook, the fiance family tagging pictures of hers and that guy, it hurts.
I hate all these society norms but I'm helpless here just sitting and suffering.

@SW-User How so? Love has nothing to do with origin. Why should we allow the norms of our forefathers control the present and future? I also have many family and friends from India. Arranged marriages are still practiced but not like it used to be.
