A coming of age story: a little white girl runs away from home in Botswana, Africa - on the same day as the Rwandan Genocide. Her journey moves her through familiar spaces in an unfamiliar. She is alone. As the truths of Africa bounce off her, she realizes her place in society is different than others. An existential crisis ensues about her class and race. Her courage is tested as day turns into night and as the truths about humanity are slowly revealed to her through the people she meets. Her gardner finds her and brings her home, forever changed. Forever in his debt.

On the precipice of a potential World War III, humanity finds itself entangled in a web of its own making: escalating racial tensions, societal unrest, and a deep-seated fear of the "other." Into this volatile mix comes an unexpected element - the arrival of alien refugees, green-skinned humanoids fleeing their war-torn planet. This seemingly fantastical element serves as a potent allegory, forcing us to confront our own anxieties and prejudices regarding immigration, cultural differences, and the complexities of global conflict. The story follows the journey of a young Black girl, whose act of compassion towards a green child inadvertently sets in motion a chain of events that will reshape the course of humanity. Her simple act of sharing food becomes a symbol of hope, a stark contrast to the rising tide of xenophobia that sweeps across the globe. The UN's decision to grant asylum to the alien refugees, though seemingly humanitarian, ignites a firestorm of global opposition, highlighting the fragility of international cooperation and the ease with which fear can manipulate public opinion. But the arrival of the aliens isn't solely a tale of human prejudice; it is also a story of internal conflict within the alien race itself. A faction, choosing to remain on their war-ravaged homeworld, harbors a deep-seated hatred for humanity and plots a conquest of Earth. This creates a multi-layered conflict: not merely a battle between humans and aliens, but a war within a war, mirroring the internal divisions and ideological conflicts that plague humanity itself. This narrative explores the thin line between unity and division, the cost of prejudice, and the unwavering strength of empathy in a world teetering on the brink. It's a story that challenges us to examine our own biases, to confront the darkness within ourselves, and to choose compassion in the face of fear.

Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes? More importantly, what happens when she finds out that she was taught lies from the moment she was born?
