Someone has decided that your game must end. "Wake up daughter, the war has begun."
I was fifteen when my mother said those words. What followed were nine days spent between sirens and runs to the cellar, until my mother, my little sister and I were faced with a choice no one should have to make: stay and take the risk, or leave home and lose everything for the sake of safety.
Six borders. Fear, sacrifice, rejection, separation, growth. The kindness of strangers and unexpected coincidences. This is the story of how I stopped trusting tomorrow and of the long journey I had to take to believe in another one.
Angelika Saldetska is a young and creative writer who was born in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, and later moved closer to the sea, near Odesa, where she spent her childhood.
Whilst attending a regular school, she eventually felt limited and gained entry to a better school by passing an entrance exam. She studied and made plans for the future, but one day her life changed drastically due to circumstances beyond her control.
In 2022, she found herself in Sweden with her family, seeking safety. She completed the three-year International Baccalaureate programme, which prepared her very well for the next stages of her life. She is continuing her studies and is currently attending university.
In this book, she shares a unique story from her life, which involved her, her sister and her mum. A life-changing story, full of unforeseen events, challenges, and the kindness of strangers.
