#### *Shocking Secret*

While she is talking to Amira, Winter recalls that her parents and grandmother don't know that Shetani is evil.

#### *The Attack*

Evie tells her mother that Amira's never truly felt love, mostly in part due to her parents and grandmother ignoring her.

#### *Your Pain is My Pleasure: Part 1*

Amira mentions that her parents and grandmother don't love her, but there is one person who does - Winter. She tells Shetani that she never knew what love was because of her entire family neglecting her, but her girlfriend helped her learn it.

#### *Your Pain is My Pleasure: Part 2*

"*Amira, we didn't mean to-*"
—Mikayla's failed reasoning with Amira

Mikayla calls out for Amira, walking up to her, along with Braxton and Dahlia. Instead of embracing them, Amira retorts for them to stay away, pointing out that they lied about Shetani. Mikayla explains that they didn't know until they came back to Pineshadow, and they try to reason with her, but Amira completely rejects her and Braxton because of their neglect and inability to love her until it was too late. They walk away from the scene after she forgives Dahlia and lets her back into her life. Later, is is noted that both Mikayla and Braxton have lost custody of Amira to Dahlia.

### Season 3

#### *Rise to Power*

Amira tells Evie that her father would serve her the foods her parents and Shetani would never give her. Later, when Ivanna imitates Shetani, Amira notes that she was left with her cruel and abusive aunt when her parents ditched her on business terms.

#### *Warbringer*

Dahlia tells Amira that her mother and aunt were "dorks" in their youth.

### *Little Miss Perfect*

Amira tells Evie that she never had a proper room, as her parents failed to properly decorate it. After taking a bath, she asks Evie if they're having pancakes for breakfast, noting that her parents hardly ever made them for her. Later, Evie questions Amira on how bad her parents were to her, only knowing that they neglected her. Amira says that they did care for her when she was younger, but as she grew, they became more distant and loveless, and didn't talk to her often. One night, she overheard her mother saying that she didn't want her this early, with her father adding that they didn't even want her at all. That night, Amira cried herself to sleep because of what she overheard. Her parents also never understood how much being in grade school meant to her - they pulled her out in third grade, and never told her why they did so - leaving her to be homeschooled by her father. She comments that she has a unique hertiage, but wishes her family would share it with her. When Amira confronts Evie's mother, she states that she expected her to be better than her own mother, but clearly she isn't. Evie looks on proudly, knowing Amira is speaking from her experience with her own family. After confronting her, Amira finishes by telling Opal that her mother and grandmother neglected her, and her aunt made her a slave, but despite her hospitality, she doesn't owe her respect for her treatment of Evie. Following the fight with Shetani, Evie remembers Amira rejecting all of her family, except for her grandmother.

### *Two-Sided*

#### *Aftermath*

Winter recalls that Amira stood up to her parents.

### Specials

#### *Daniela Wrecks Christmas*

"*You* **egocentric indolent lackadaisical child***! What have you done to* **OUR HOUSE***??" [...] "You* couldn't *accept your* goddamn punishment*. You* **cannot** *be* **grateful***! You are **INCAPABLE** of being anything but a **REBELLIOUS SWINE**!*"
—Mikayla screaming at Amira for wrecking the house

Daniela overhears a young girl complaining that her parents kicked her out of the house, and upon meeting her properly, she reveals that they did so because they refused to celebrate Christmas with her, as well as believing she was too hot-headed. Despising her parents, Daniela persuades the girl, named Amira, to wreck their Christmas as revenge for what they did, and she agrees to do it. The house is soon trashed, and Daniela steals an overcoat belonging to Amira's mother, giving it to Amira to warm her up. Later, Amira realizes that Daniela manipulated her for her own gain, and fearing that her parents are going to never accept her again for what she did, she cuts ties with Daniela entirely. When she is rescued by Evie and Mya, she confesses what her parents have done and fears their wrath; their behavior infuriates Mya heavily. By Christmas morning, when Daniela is captured, Amira's parents are notified that she is in safe hands and can be picked up at the mall later. That evening, Mikayla and Braxton, both outraged at Amira's antics, scold and threaten her, putting her on the verge of breaking down. However, Evie and Mya do not tolerate their friend being harassed and intervene, chastising the parents for their use of violent rhetoric and causing the entire debacle in the first place - they must show Amira grace and kindness, as she has been punished enough already. Both surrender reluctantly and give Amira time to hang out with her friends, though a part of her knows her parents will never change. In the present, Mya believes things have smoothed over with her parents.

#### *Rise of a She-Devil*

"*Clearly kicking you out last time didn't settle your temper, nor did it help you. But don't worry, someone's coming to care for you. You haven't met your Aunt Shetani, and I know for* certain *she's always wanted to see you.*"
—Mikayla to Amira

Amira notes that her parents have always neglected her since she was young; while they still provided for her, they never seemed to love her back. She adds that she came out as a lesbian to them in second grade (before she was homeschooled). Despite being proud of herself, she feels empty because of her parents viewing her as an object. Just as she begins to read, her parents walk up to her, and Mikayla announces that the family is going on a business trip for the next few months, with Braxton adding that it was a surprise. Angered by her parents dropping this bombshell on her, she retorts that she cannot live on her own, but Mikayla calms her by mentioning that her aunt, Shetani, is coming to care for her. They soon leave without saying goodbye, and Amira thinks that they don't know how to treat her, not considering them ideal role models. When Shetani tells Amira to clean up the house, she mentions that her parents didn't do a good job. After Shetani calls Amira a dog, the latter notes that this isn't what her mother promised. Upon Shetani revealing that she is racist, Amira remembers being biracial, a mix of her parents' skin colors, and having Puerto Rican descent. Later, Amira realizes her parents lied to her, and that Shetani never loved her from the start. When Shetani leaves Amira to clean her bedroom, she mutters about getting rid of a mirror Mikayla had. It is later noted by Amira that her parents don't love her and that she can't even call them.

## Personality and Traits

Not much is known about Mikayla, but it is shown that she and Braxton are neglectful and uncaring parents with little to no regard for Amira. She is also suggested to be stern and unwilling to show support to her own daughter, which personally hurts her and makes her feel lonely. However, she is also shown to deeply care for Amira at heart, but this trait comes too little too late, as her daughter rejects her and Braxton because of their neglect.
