Born in 

2013

The fourth-grader little girl was abandoned by her parents and is being raised by her aunt. Basically, she doesn't know her parents, they don't know where they are. And the parents don't even ask, they're not interested in her. Nah likes reading, but she has no textbooks or school supplies. She helps a lot at home, does the dishes, carries water from the public well, goes to the store. She likes skipping school, jumping rope with her friends and playing on one of the neighbors' phones. Food is put on the table once a day. She is a serious, obedient child, and despite her fate, she is happy, says the aunt. She likes to sing and dance. She wants school supplies, a doll, and a backpack.
