My Life, My Choice

Shattered. Broken. Destroyed. If you took a look inside of Kanya Alizes' heart, this is what you would see: a city, it's remnants nothing but rubble. This city, once so bright, so hopeful, lays in ruins. Abused at school, abused at home, there is nowhere safe for Kanya. She has no one. Will she able to struggle on, bearing the burden and grief of a much older person, or will she finally give in and end her life? Because, in her mind, real Hell is better than her own personal one. But one fateful night, Kanya stumbles into a karaoke bar, where "stars learn to shine". She takes a chance... and steps up to that stage. Suddenly, at night, she becomes a hometown rockstar, someone who matters, someone who other people care if she lives or dies. Can she take her newfound confidence, and find herself in her city of rubble, and make it whole again?
This is a touching tale of how you can rise to the top, over the people who hurt you. And that somebody always has it worse than you, and there are ways to handle it.
