Alice is a kind and fun girl, but something terrible is happening to her. She's being bullied by someone she thought was her friend. She is heavily impacted, up to the point that she tells her mother she doesn't want to live anymore. However, with some help of her mother, she discovers her inner strength, learns how to stand up for herself and make new friends.

Soon enough, she realises that deep inside she is stronger than her bully. She gets her confidence back and starts feeling better again. Although she had a terrible time, she comes out as a stronger, more resilient and confident young girl.
