Overview
# Chomel For Mimi, a clever 9-year-old girl, her life has been in turmoil since her mother's departure. After failing to befriend the Diva Girlz and being sidelined by her older sister Nora, Mimi is saddened when she witnesses a quarrel between her grandmother Wan and her father Imran. Without Mimi's knowledge, Wan challenges Imran's custody of Mimi and Nora. In her sadness, Mimi prays to find a friend to fill the emptiness in her life. The next day, Mimi discovers a stray cat named Chomel and befriends it, hoping this will help her connect with the Diva Girlz. Imran, desperate due to his unstable income, tries to sell his batik work. However, Chomel destroys his batik artwork. Enraged, Imran orders Nora to get rid of Chomel. But Nora defends Chomel because Zain, a popular student whom she admires, loves cats. By chance, Nora, Mimi, and the Diva Girlz receive an invitation to Zain's party through Chomel.
