Quotes:
[Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them]
« Niya: […] Like Brandon my boyfriend.
»
« Rachel: I am sorry. You have a boyfriend?
»
« Niya: Mom, stay focused. I don't like carrying my bag all the time. So when Brandon is around I act like it hurts my shoulder and he carries it for me. He gets to be the hero and I don't have to carry the bag.
»
« Rachel: When did you get a boyfriend?
»
« Niya: Focus, Mom. Trust me, life is a lot easier when you let someone else carry your load. Even if you can carry it yourself.
