Taliyah: Here from me. 

*Ladies turn to Taliyah in silence*

Taliyah: Years ago back in high school, there was this boy...strange looking but smart, but somehow popular. He had a girlfriend, she never wanted to be with him.She decided to leave him until she found out he held some way more valuable information over her. Her family were undocumented and didn't have their papers. He told her if she ever leaves him, he’ll go straight to getting them deported…..*moment of silence* I was that girl. 

Maggy and Maya: What?!? Your Parents aren't documented

Kendra: Oh dear, I'm so sorry to hear that. Why haven't you told anyone

Taliyah: I couldn't trust anyone else after that. But now he wants to marry me and turn in my family in exchange for my love and a marriage. He won't stop until he gets me. 

Kendra: Don't worry, we will stop him.
