Sela
Great grandmother. Mother of Seini, Eseta, and Malia. Married to Aisake, a man much older than her. He passed away before Sela migrated to the US with Malia, Atu, Palu (Emma), and Lio Jr.

Seini
Daughter of Sela. 1st to migrate. Married Simi, a Mormon. Brought Eseta to the US.

Eseta
Daughter of Sela. Moved in with Seini and then married Manu. The first man that wanted to marry Eseta wouldn't come to the US, but Manu did. That's why she married him.

Manu
Husband of Eseta. When he got older, he had to retire from being a janitor because he had emphysema.

Malia
Daughter of Sela. She, Atu, Sela, Palu(Emma), and Lio Jr. migrated to the US in 1990.

Atu
Husband of Malia. Like Aisake, Atu was much older than Malia. He didn't like the American life because in tonga he was in a higher class than he was in the US. He died in 1993 from a heart attack.

Finau
Eldest living daughter of Malia. She was very smart and became a teacher in tonga. She stayed in tonga with her husband Samlu and daughters, Losana and Tomasi.

Palu
American name: Emma. Daughter of Malia. Migrated with her parents, grandmother

Sela, and nephew Lio Jr. American life suited her best. She's dating (and living with) Greg, an African American.

Lio Jr.
Lio is Malia's son but he drowned during a drunken swim with his friends. His 2 year old son, Lio Jr., was adopted by Malia and then migrated with them to the US. Completely Americanized and kind of a bratty, rebellious kid.

Sara
Eseta and Manu's daughter. Completely Americanized. Rolls her eyes when Manu says she has to marry Tongan.

Alyssa
Sister of Sara. Same description applies.

    In Kansas City, however, the story of La Llorona is that of a beautiful young woman who attracts the attention of a wealthy man's son even though she is very poor. The lovers secretly marry and set up a household; they have several children. Unfortunately, a day comes when the young man's father announces that he has arranged a marriage for his son to a young woman within their social class. The young man tells his secret wife that he must leave her and that he will never see her again. She is driven mad by anger and a broken heart, and takes their children to a river, where she drowns them to spite her husband. When her husband finds out, he and several townspeople go to find her, but she kills herself before they can apprehend her. She goes to Heaven and faces the judgement of God. God asks her, "Where are your children?" to which she replies, "I do not know." God asks her three times and she replies with the same answer. God then damns her to walk the earth in search of her children. According to this tale, it is wise to avoid La Llorona, as she is known for drowning passers-by in an attempt to replace her dead children. Alternatively, right after she drowns her children, La Llorona realizes what she has done and,…
