LOST

The Girl No One Noticed

Six year old Siya has learned how to be quiet.

Her parents are always busy. Her home is always filled with arguments. And the adults who are supposed to take care of her are often too distracted to notice when something is wrong.

So Siya stops asking.

She stops complaining.
Stops crying where anyone can see.
Stops expecting someone to come.

She becomes the perfect child quiet, obedient, and easy to overlook.

But behind that silence is a little girl desperately waiting for someone to notice her.

And when the one person who was supposed to pick her up from school doesn't come, Siya is left alone.

What happens when a child who has spent years feeling invisible finally disappears?

Sometimes, children don't need more attention after they disappear. They needed it when they were still there.
