It was a surprise for Ana to discover somebody waiting outside of the salon at the time she went to open the door.  “Good morning.  Are you very early for an appointment?  Or are you hoping I can maybe squeeze you in before my first?”

“Oh. I apologize; I believe my appointment is for tomorrow but I was in the neighborhood and wanted to stop by. My friend is having a birthday next weekend and I was wondering if you sell any gift certificates.”

Growing up, Kassandra lived a quiet life. She was soft-spoken but had a big heart for those around her. Many considered her as an “old soul.” She was never one to join a group of friends for reckless fun, and would instead choose to keep to herself. As the eldest in her family, with two younger sisters, she has taken on a set of responsibilities since childhood. Her father was a skilled hat maker, running his own shop for many years. When Kassandra was only nine, her father passed away, leaving his wife and three daughters. As the oldest, Kassandra took it upon herself to help take care of her sisters, and eventually took over the family hat shop. But hat making was not a skill Kassandra excelled at, so she and her sisters converted the hat shop into a family tailoring store.

But before their father passed away, the Yungs were a joyful family. They were an integral part of the Aldridge Bay neighborhood. Mr. Yung himself prided himself in being social with locals and tourists alike; everyone to him was a new friend. Kassandra never exactly inherited those traits but she grew a fondness and compassion for others around her. She wished to make others happy just as her father had, although likely not in the same manner. When Mr. Yung passed, the neighborhood paid their respects, offering condolences to the surviving family members. This only pushed Kassandra to mature far more beyond her years.

Now, she’s spent her entire life in Aldridge Bay and Kassandra adores how close the neighborhood is. Of course, not everyone chose to be a part of the community, but to those who did, Kassandra greets them all with a warm smile and an open heart. Her skillful hands are able to sew just about anything, and though hat making isn’t her bread and butter, sometimes she’ll make a few to sell in memory of her father.

What is their opinion about the boardwalk and its effect on the town?

A part of Kassandra clings onto what Aldridge Bay used to be like without the boardwalk, but she also feels as though she cannot stop the change if it happens. Personally, she’s only gone there a handful of times because it tends to be too loud and flashy for her taste. It does seem to make certain people happy which is something she can accept.
