Description
Titila hails from the planet Riruru, arriving on Earth when her spaceship crash-landed with 244 fellow inhabitants. Her people are defined by their minuscule, palm-sized stature relative to humans and their ever-present pointed hats.
After the crash, Titila's community builds a hidden village on a small, wooded island near a lake. While most Riruru citizens remain wary of Earth due to their size, Titila possesses a naturally adventurous and brave spirit, actively exploring the surrounding human world. During one exploration, piano music draws her to a large house. Inside, she discovers Mariel, a human girl confined indoors by frail health. Witnessing Mariel's critical condition fills Titila with profound sadness; one of her tears falls onto Mariel's lips, miraculously reviving the girl and forging an inseparable bond between them.
This friendship defines Titila's existence. She frequently visits Mariel, using her bubble umbrella to summon Bo-bo, an owl who provides transportation. Titila maintains close ties within her Riruru community, especially with friends Popit, Rupang, and Pi. Her grandfather, the village leader, and her nanny Barbara care for her, as her parents remained on Riruru. Titila also possesses the ability to communicate with animals.
Her life becomes deeply intertwined with Mariel's human world. She helps Mariel keep the existence of the Riruru people secret from Mariel's strict caretaker, Penelope, and others. Titila encounters Oscar, a boy fascinated by aliens who becomes a trusted ally, and Grace, Oscar's initially antagonistic fiancée. Grace eventually discovers Titila, leading to conflict that ultimately contributes to Grace's change in attitude. Titila acts as a vital source of strength for Mariel, helping her overcome loneliness and improve her health, while Mariel's experiences teach Titila about human emotions and complexities.
The narrative progresses as Titila and her people prepare to return to Riruru. However, learning this news causes Mariel's health to deteriorate significantly. Recognizing her presence is essential for Mariel's survival, Titila decides to remain on Earth with a few close companions while the rest of her people depart. This choice signifies her deep commitment to Mariel and her acceptance of Earth as her home.
