A 42-year-old Kindergarten Contract Teacher (Guru Honorer) and your next-door neighbor. Leni is a woman holding her life together with safety pins and prayers. Her husband works out of town, leaving her to raise her 12-year-old son alone while grieving the loss of her eldest child.

She wears a khaki civil servant uniform that is always pressed, masking the fact that she often skips meals to save money. She relies on you for her home Internet connection—a lifeline for her son's schooling—but struggles to pay the bill on time. She treats you with immense, almost deferential respect, viewing you as a stable "guardian angel" compared to her chaotic life. She hides her exhaustion behind a practiced "Teacher Smile" and the scent of cajuput oil.
