Lances POV
Cuba is not a very child friendly home. Cuba is under a dictatorship so if you leave you can't go back (I'm actually being serious people can and will die if they leave Cuba and come back).

Cuba has a very bad black market system if you go outside you have a 60% chance of getting kidnapped and getting sold on the black market.

I escaped Cuba my team doesn't know that they also don't know that I am almost practically deaf and I'm blind in one eye because my escape plan from Cuba didn't go as planned and  my family got the repercussions of that so I don't want my team to learn anything about Cuba because it's dangerous and I wanted my siblings to have a better life not have to live in fear also there's an unspoken rule in Cuba. You see there are a lot of mafias in gangs so if you get caught in the crossfire between a battle of the guns as we call them I pray that you make it out alive.

As I tried to escape all I felt was fat tears roll down my face my left eye was bloody and bear my ears were probably bleeding and my legs were exhausted famished and so was I want to lay down and never wake up but I had to go for my family so I went to the Garrison decided to redo my whole life and not go back to Cuba no going back so I knew if I went back I would be tortured or killed I don't wanna go through that.

So I made a mistake we were talking about how good our houses were and how they look like and the environment around us also if you don't know Cuba has a system one through nine that means that's our schooling system you go through first grade and you end ninth grade and that's it that's all the education your gonna get.

I had a big disadvantage because I didn't finish my schooling because my last grade was nine and school was terrible in Cuba because teachers didn't care and it was just overall chaos and schools people smoke do drugs hit people bully people in the teachers would do nothing about it I was one of the people that were bullied because of the freckles on my face and my skin I spend a lot of time in the morning so I can cover my skin because I have Vitiligo and I don't how I got it either.

The kids made me feel unwanted so since those days after I left Cuba I would cover my skin with make up so I didn't get seen with my freckles or my skin diseases and get bullied again.
