[name_f]Brittany[/name_f] ’ [name_f]Britt[/name_f] ’ [name_f]Afia[/name_f] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] (16) is Rashaun’s daughter, Keenan’s big sister and recent Homecoming queen, a title she didn’t expect to win given the fact she wasn’t the person with the strongest social connections. While she’s well-liked, [name_f]Britt[/name_f] is someone who likes sticking with the friends she knows well and trusts, as overexposing herself to the many social groups of high school just feels like a disaster waiting to happen. This conflict avoidance is also why she’d rather just politely keep her distance from [name_f]Ember[/name_f] than address anything, even if it’s more assurance than anything .
She has been friendly with [name_f]Rhia[/name_f], Embers’ sister, in the past, although Britt’s taken a few steps back from this since winning her title and worrying about possible awkwardness. Her little brother doesn’t quite get this delicate approach and has told [name_f]Britt[/name_f] that [name_f]Ember[/name_f] should just understand ‘she’s the coolest girl at school’, which makes her laugh every time he says it, although she’s not going to be using Keenan’s conflict resolution advice any time soon.
When her brother was born, [name_f]Britt[/name_f] handled it better than what her parents expected, but really this was because she had already guessed they wanted to try for a baby. Growing up, they were both pretty open about wanting a bigger family, and Britt’s sort of been anticipating the change since she was 9, however she has been pleasantly surprised by how well [name_m]Keenan[/name_m] responds to her as a voice of authority. Well when he isn’t hellbent on being a troublemaker for his own entertainment!
