Scene: Startrain. First-Class.

A pretty African-American girl is sitting with her mother, looking out the window.

"Are you excited to see your cousin?" Her mom questions.

"Yeah..." She replies quietly, still looking out the window with a somber look in her eye.

Her father, who is sitting in front of her, turns to face her. "Okay, Keisha, what's wrong?"

The dark-skinned girl now known as Keisha glares at him. "You know what's wrong dad. The fact that we're moving from Belgium to Paris is wrong. The fact that I have to move away from my friends is wrong."

Her mother sighs. "Keisha, we've been over this. We're moving because-"

"You got a job offer from Vogue and dad got accepted into this Smart News Studio as a journalist, I know." Keisha says, glaring out the window. "I just wish I didn't have to leave my life behind." She frowns.

"Don't think of it that way, Keisha, we'll come to visit." Her mom assures. "Look on the bright side, you'll be attending the same school as your cousin Giselle, so you won't be in a building full of strangers. And you still have your blog to work on."

Keisha pushes up her mouth, still upset that she was moving away from her home to a whole new city.

Scene: Paris. Gar du Nord.

Giselle is waiting for her cousin to arrive with her divorced parents.

The train shows up just then and the doors slid open, letting people off.

As soon as she saw Keisha and her parents, Giselle squealed and ran over to her. "Cuzzo!"

Keisha smiles slightly and embraces her cousin. "Hey, Giselle."

"Sis!" Keisha's mother hurries over to Priya with outstretched arms.

"Brielle!" Priya wraps her sister into a tight hug. "It's been so long!"

"Good to see you again, Hendrik," Landon shakes Keisha's dad's hand.

"Likewise," Hendrik gives him a small smile.
