On the fateful day of January 6, 2014, Eliana slumbers peacefully, unaware of the impending upheaval that awaits her. Interrupted by her mother's stern voice, she reluctantly rises from her dreams, compelled to accompany her alongside her brother Jonathan to work. It's an unusual request, venturing into the bustling and chaotic Computer Village, but Eliana obediently follows, embracing the unexpected adventure that unfolds.
The day passes swiftly, with sporadic customers visiting her mother's workplace and indulging in the meals Eliana carries in her distinctive lunch bag. As evening approaches and they head home, little does Eliana know that her safe haven will be shattered by life-altering news.
Arriving at their house, she discovers the gate ajar and her sister, worn and tear-stained, sitting at the entrance. Overwhelmed with emotion, Eliana rushes to her sister's side, clutching her lunch bag tightly. In that heartbreaking moment, her sister reveals the devastating truth: their father is gone. Eliana's world crumbles, and she is thrust into an unfamiliar existence, grappling with poverty and an uncertain future.
This poignant narrative traces Eliana Leo's journey from her formative years to the tumultuous realm of adolescence. She navigates through hardship, employing coping mechanisms that leave her broken and scarred. However, amid the shattered fragments of her spirit, she finds solace in one constant presence- his presence, the only source of enduring faith in her life. This is a tale of resilience, growth, and the enduring power of belief.
