Kopikat

In Kopikat, where conformity reigned supreme—identical houses, same routines, and predictable smiles—lived Lila, a girl with an unruly imagination. Her vibrant paintings of sunsets, bursting with non-existent colors, earned her ridicule and disbelief. "You should blend in, Lila," her mother urged, attempting to tame her colorful attire. "People will like you more if you're like them." One day, Lila stumbled upon an old bookstore, unnoticed by most, and discovered a dusty book titled "The Tale of the Bright Star." It narrated the story of a star that dared to shine uniquely, bringing joy to those who noticed its special glow. Inspired, Lila adorned her house with a mural—a beautiful pink flower unseen in Kopikat. Initially met with shock and gossip, her mural soon sparked change.
