Overview

Maya & Syukri are a married couple who have 5 children who live in poverty. The sudden loss of Shukri caused chaos in Maya's children's lives. Maya had to leave her children to earn a living in the city and expected Mia,12 as the eldest child to take care of her younger siblings. Maya has also given her trust to Seri, her neighbour so that Seri can lend money to Mia after she gets paid. However, Seri has used it for other purposes, and this causes Mia and her sisters to lose the reason to buy food. Unable to see her younger siblings starve, Mia has decided to work in the garden's fields. The lack of money to pay the house rent has also caused Mia and her siblings to be evicted by the landlord. Mia had to take her younger siblings and take shelter under the bridge until she was helped by Pak Ehsan. Pak Ehsan has given them temporary shelter in a workshop.
