She tells Sasha she been sitting there thinking about everything they been through and put too much pressure on him through all the bad decisions she made. Sasha tells her not to worry and they still have time to figure things out, Nina says they don't and believes that it all happened for a reason that she wasted the scholarship because she thought she was in love with Jamie. Telling Sasha she shouldn't have ruined it all when she had too much potential to waste it on a silly crush. Hearing this, Sasha comforts her sister longer.
