~ The year is 1996, Elmira lived in a small ghetto neighborhood in Brooklyn. It wasn't much but her family all lived nearby, so it was good enough for her. She'd just recently graduated highschool, and went to work for her mom at her mom's salon, doing hair for customers. She was good at it, as she herself always kept her hair in a big poofy style. She lived with her Mom, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa. And the neighboring house was the home to her Uncle, Aunt and Cousin! ~

~ Elmira used the stopper on her skate to come to a halt, as she got off of the rink, and rolled to her table. Her friends sat there, a big cheesy pizza just arriving for the girls to share.~
