A story through a girl named Victoria's eyes growing up with a family that is a little bit different than others. She has a brother with a disability that effects his life as well as their family's. Her parents are there but aren't really there much because they are gone a lot with work. They still love they're kids and would do anything for them even though they are not always around as much as they could be. Victoria acts as a mom to her brother as he is someone so important in her life and she would never let anything bad happen to him. Her goal in life is to show that just because her brother has a disability and that's something that makes him different from others doesn't change him as a person and that he is capable of doing things just like anyone else.

They soon start to question their priorities and why in the world they let their friendship fall apart so long ago. Can their relationship, still so young and fragile, withstand what's ahead?Complete

Victoria must decide if she'll be a cruel, judgemental and demanding woman as her mother was, or to learn that as humans, we all have flaws. The decision is Victoria's, because the fate of her country lies in her hands.
