Plot Summary
The story follows young Raina, who wakes up one night with a terrible stomach bug. While the physical illness eventually passes, she is left with a lasting fear of sickness and food. This fear manifests as chronic stomach aches, a cycling pattern of anxiety, and school stress. Alongside changing friendships and schoolyard drama, Raina learns to navigate her fears with the help of a supportive therapist, mind-body techniques, and open communication.
