Her perfect life was turned upside down at 12 years old when her daddy died, and her mom turned to crack to ease the pain. Tiana has had a crush on Tyrell ever since she could remember. Her daddy had brought Tyrell and his sister to live in their guest house when Tiana was only nine and she had loved him ever since.
