Seeking to escape her troubled home life, she often retreats into a world of make-believe and starts playing a game of dares with her friends. However, the game quickly spirals out of control, leading her into increasingly dangerous situations. Throughout the story, she grapples with her desire for a better life, the complexities of her family relationships, and the challenges of growing up in a less-than-ideal environment. Her resilience and creativity shine as she navigates the hardships of her reality, all while daring to dream of a happier future.
