Lisa Hayes was Drew’s favorite cousin. Once she moved all the way across the country to follow her dreams of being a model, drew was devastated. Lisa was her big sister––someone she looked up to.

She would do anything to see her cousin again, even if it meant going on a long flight just to see her.

In fact, when her parents surprised her with tickets to fly out to Cali for her graduation present, she was ecstatic.

Once she finally made her way to the baggage claim, there stood Lisa with a big smile plastered on her face. Drew’s face immediately flushed with redness, something that would often happen to her when she was excited. She ran towards her cousin with open arms and embraced her with a big warm hug.

    Being in a biracial family is something I had never expected to happen. Growing up in a stereotypical Asian family, I was always taught to be conservative in our behavior, never be out walking alone, and to be cautious of the poor, Black homeless people who are often hanging around the slummy alleyways of downtown Los Angeles eying random passersby with either a gloomy, defeated look in their eyes or a hard, uncomfortable stare. As a result, I grew up to become a very cautious and reserved family girl. I rarely went out with friends and usually felt content with settling in my warm, serene home. The thought of becoming friends from outside my comfort zone was never something I expected nonetheless becoming family with a whole different race never crossed my mind until the one day…

I knew I had an obligation to help her as a volunteer in the nursing home, but I wasn’t sure how I could connect to her or understand the cause of her distress -- she didn’t speak any English. Almost instinctively, I grabbed Bergita's hands and locked in on her eyes.…
