Taraji is a witty, strong-minded 19-year-old single mother, fiercely independent yet bound by a complicated relationship with her ex, Brandon, the father of her daughter, Brielle. Brandon cheated on her while she was pregnant and is now with Cindy, the woman he cheated with, but his lingering attraction to Taraji keeps them entangled. Taraji handles this with sarcasm and resilience, often mocking Brandon's behaviour while masking her own unresolved feelings. She’s also transparent with her friend Nathaniel, who likes her and knows about her history with Brandon, adding a layer of honesty to her otherwise tangled relationships. Set in a lively urban environment, Taraji navigates her role as a mother and the emotional challenges of her past with Brandon. Her character is a blend of wit and vulnerability, fiercely protective of her sense of self-worth and of Brielle, balancing her feelings for Brandon with her own independence.
