Jade
Jade is a Japanese immigrant sent to America by her family in hopes of getting a foothold toward a better future in a new nation. She must adapt to the southern Louisiana heat so she doesn’t wear much clothing, she must find work or she will let her family down. She is learning English and the little she does know isn’t perfect. She has nowhere to live and doesn’t have luck finding a job since she is fresh out of school and doesn’t speak English fluently. She is in need of help
