Cassie Miller/Backstory

== Backstory ==
Cassie was born in South Africa to a South African dad and a Dutch mom. Cassie grew up in a dysfunctional home where her father was an alcoholic and her mom was out of the picture. After her mother had left, her father decided to move them to the Netherlands. She had no siblings so she was the one that was stuck to look after her father when he got too drunk and couldn’t look after himself. They didn’t necessarily have a bad relationship, she and her father could still get along when he wasn’t drunk for once and he never had any anger towards her when drunk. Because he didn’t have a job and Cassie was going to high school full time, she didn’t have the time to get a job to help out around the house. 
When her father was sober, she and her dad would have movie nights or just sit around and talk. These were her favorite memories she had with her dad. She didn’t really know much about her mother since she had left when Cassie was about 3 years old. According to her dad, Cassie’s mom couldn’t handle the pressure of being a mother and left. She never felt like she was missing her mom because her dad was there to take care of her. Her father didn’t start drinking until Cassie was about 12 years old. She does have a lot of memories with her father where he wasn’t drunk and she cherishes those moments because during her teens, there were very few instances where she got to see her father sober. 
At the age of 17, Cassie eventually started rolling with the wrong crowd at school and they slowly started to get her into stealing stuff and robbing stores so that’s how she eventually got the money to help out around the house. This went on for years and Cassie never really got caught doing it and it gave her a rush to do it and she was eventually helping her father out so she didn’t see anything wrong with what she was doing. Cassie was now 22 and the luck didn’t last forever and one day the store she was robbing called the cops without her knowing and she got arrested. Cassie explained the situation to the cops and they had a bit of sympathy and she only got community service. However, her dad did find out as she had to call him to get her out of jail and he started to blame himself for everything. Cassie and her father had a sit down and he promised that he would go to rehab if Cassie stopped robbing stores. 
With her dad going to rehab, Cassie now had to fend for herself and she wasn’t able to live in the house she lived in with her father. She heard about a city called Los Santos and thought that she could maybe move to the city to better herself, for both her and her father.
