The place , has two floors :  

1 the “ basement “ which is the one in the drawing , this is where Nadim helps out and it solely operates as a bar , opens in the evening  . 

Stage 1

Before her firs year of high school Nadim spent the summer with her old fashioned grandma ( Hye )  in  South Korea in an attempt to form some sort of bond with her after no contact since her mother  ( Nari ) died .

Her grandma tried to reshape Nadim during this time together basically making her bring out all of the similarities with Nari and hide all that made her like her father ( Regan )  whom Hye held responsible  for her daughter’s death .

This reshaping was pretty effective as Nadim was trying very hard to make their relationship a good one . 

And so ,comportment wise , in her first year she was a very reserved , very quiet and as elegant as she could , she would refuse to talk about her problems and bottle everything up and would spend most of her free time studying   .

Appearance wise , Nadim has gotten the same hairstyle as her mother had ,kept her hair always straightened , she hid her freckles  as it was a trait she had from her father   and it was the last time in her life when she actually wore skirts . 

During this time  Nad had a lot of acquaintances but not many she could call friends  .This is when her childhood friend ( Kentin ) developed a strong crush on her and the relationship with her fathers started growing cold , as her biological father ( Regan ) was overseas with work  and his partner  ( Oliver)   did not know what to do since Nadim was technically doing nothing wrong .

Stage 2 

But Regan came back and , after realizing how cold his daughter was now , he started doing his best to learn what’s wrong , in his very straightforward quite annoying manner . This started a conflict in which Nadim ended up saying a lot that hurt both of her fathers and herself . After some forced self reflecting time during a trip they made together Nadim realized how wrong and not like her what she did was  and in an effort to be her truest self she let go of all the restraints she had made for herself . 

This led to a pretty wild period in her life , when she did a lot of impulsive things and she completely let go of trying to have her grandma in her life  .  

Appearance wise ,  she stopped hiding her freckles and gone out of her way trying to show trough her appearance that she was no longer a “ proper little lady “ .

This caused  a lot of  friends  to distanced themselves from her . The ones that stayed were Kentin and Lucy though they did not support her actions they were always there for her like her fathers . 

Stage 3 

But at one point she has  started going  too far , and everything culminated with her destroying a teachers car . Even though in a way she was right to wanna hurt that teacher , Nadim ended in prison for a few days but got away without a criminal record , however she had to change schools  . 

During her prison time  she ended doing a lot of thinking and made a list of what she likes what she hates what she wants to be and what not , and guided by this list she came to be the way she is now , she has  her own rules and boundaries but keeps being painfully honest and open minded .

Now she’s made a lot of new friends , but the ones that will always be closest to her are Ken and Lucy . Her relationship with Oliver and Regan is more like best friends than fathers and daughter and even though her grandma still hates Regan she has learned to accept Nadim and the relationship with that side of the family is alright .

( It took a while to get this done , because I hat a lot more details planned for the drawings but I hated how they looked . I hope the story makes sense and thank you for getting here and reading it . ^//////^ )
