Almost half the world — over three billion people — live on less than $2.50 a day. At least 80% of humanity lives on less than $10 a day. More than 80 % of the world's population lives in countries where income differentials are widening.*

Sandy and her family is part of those 80% struggling in poverty. She's living in a 100 sq ft apartment in Hong Kong with her little brother, little sister & their mom. Their dad, a man who used to protect and care for them, succumbed to the worldly sins of the earth and left them to fend for themselves.

She and her younger sister are doing their best to provide for their family as they both decided to take the responsibility and urged their mother to stay home and care for their little brother. They want their youngest to at least have a normal[or the closest to it] life by not having to worry about the next meal, or where to get the money to pay for their neverending bills.

Subscribe to this story to dive in to Sandy's life, see her hustle, be stupid(in some of her decisions), and discover love.

This is my 2nd original story, I thought hard about the plot, location, etc. I'm always open to criticisms and I love reading comments about what my readers think of my story/characters.
