At fourteen, Sonia Leung was raped by her ping-pong coach. She had moved from China to join her family in Hong Kong, but she could not fit in. The family of six lived in a cramped hut but rarely communicated. Feeling unloved, Sonia was too afraid to tell anyone about the rape. She saved money by working part-time at McDonald's and, a year later, she ran away from home. This is how she found her way to an independent life.
