BIOGRAPHY: TW FOSTER CARE, YOUNG PARENTS/PREGNANCY

Kalia was born to a young high school couple who couldn’t keep her. This marked her life path of being in the foster care system ever since being a baby. To this day, being a part of the system is something that Kalia keeps a secret. Though, if anyone would ever ask her about it, she just remembers the houses being over-crowded and like everyday was the Hunger Games for resources to live. Even with being in the system, Kalia was overly intelligent. It was to the point where she would skip classes because she was bored of the material; this being true even of her AP courses. When a peer called her out for being 20 minutes late, her teacher took her side and mentioned her 110% average in the course (yes, she got so bored - she’d do all the extra credit). Her work in her studies granted her a full ride to NYU, which she took, seeing that she was going to age out of the system and be on the streets. Her knack for stealing and con-artistry comes from her latest foster home. Her “uncle” started with teaching her sleight of hands with cards on street corners, then it was pick-pocketing in stores; Lastly, he taught her how to act intune with her emotions. “It’s all about crying. Do that - and the world is your oyster,” is what he would always tell her. And, well, she got good at that real fast: pretending to feel when she really couldn’t care less. She played with people’s empathy, and that made her untouchable.  Going off to NYU in NYC was a huge change from her neck of the woods in Goose Creek. To her, it was a new opportunity to challenge her con-artistry - to see how far she can really go. Don’t worry, she has a bridesmaids-for-hire company that she runs with her roommates; So, she makes an honest living somehow after graduating NYU with a BA in communications with a minor in business studies.

EXTRA-EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT HER!

Kalia is a hell of a time. From going to interactive museums, to finding the hottest nightclub in the city - she's definitely someone you want to have around during the weekends or nights you just want to let loose and have fun. She comes across as very enigmatic, which her friends claim adds to her allure. It's very rare that she opens up to people, and tends to facade emotions even with her 'closest friendships.' Not much of a relationship type, she tends to ghost more than anything. Hookups are her go-to, and she tends to love to lead people on for her personal gain. Though, even if there isn't anything to gain from someone, she still accidentally tends to lead them on. She's just hot and talking, okay? She can be very neurotic at times when she's stressed or has to make a decision. She's very Rachel Green-coded in this sense, seeing that she does wind up crying over these situations. She loves the finer things in life and won't accept a life she doesn't deserve; hence, the whole con-artistry side of her. For the most part, she just facades being wealthy and cons rich men of their money. If anything, we support her wrongs in this house. She loves to watch Hallmark rom-coms and she wants to learn how to cook and bake but burns everything she touches. She tends to be funny without trying. She's just a wild ride that never stops, okay? Okay.
