This is a real experience story that highlights the sorrowful plight of refugees and inhabitants living in temporary tents, amid the biting cold climate. In this tale, a fourteen-year-old boy named Mikhali finds himself alone, burdened with the responsibility of caring for a small child who has lost their mother. The child's cries for milk tug at Mikhali's heartstrings, and he embarks on a search for the missing mother, hoping to offer some comfort to the distressed child.

Mikhali's journey leads him to another village, where he encounters an elderly man. This wise figure observes the baby's cries and recognizes the urgency. In a compassionate act, the old man takes the baby into his arms and hands them to his wife.
