Teopista's life was upended when her father mysteriously vanished, leaving her family stranded in a rental house they could no longer afford. With her mother unemployed at the time, they were unable to keep up with the rent, and the inevitable occurred - they were heartlessly evicted. The future looked bleak, their lives thrown into a whirlwind of uncertainty and despair.
In the midst of their distress, a ray of hope appeared. A kind-hearted family offered them a room, a sanctuary they could stay in without charge. Teopista's mother now toils in others' gardens, straining every sinew to earn just enough to feed her children and meet their basic needs. Yet, amidst her ceaseless efforts, the financial burden of sending them to school remains an unattainable dream.
Teopista, a girl with a bright mind and an even brighter spirit, harbors the ambition of becoming a teacher. Her dreams, however, hang by a thread, entirely dependent on her chance to complete her education. Her mother's struggle, their daily survival, and her own dreams all culminate in a heartbreaking plea for help, a plea that resonates with the desperate need for a lifeline towards a better future.
