Story[]

Pre-Event[1][]

Growing up as a science geek, Leila spent all her time with books, and never learned how to swim, which made her feel very self-conscious later in life. This turned out to be a good thing however, as it caused her to meet Sean in college at MIT’s swimming pool their senior year in 2005. She fell for Sean’s nerdiness, and was impressed by his amazing hacking ability; he completely won her over when he maneuvered her name to the top of the online ticketing list for great seats at a Radiohead concert. Sean was a very attentive boyfriend during their time together in college.

Leila has always had a very strong relationship with her family. Her mother Val put her blossoming modeling career on hold to raise Leila, and later Sam, her adopted daughter. Now that her two daughters are older, (redacted) . While both parents tend to be overprotective, they’ve learned to somewhat let go, thanks in part to their trust in Sean since he entered Leila’s life.

Leila’s daily routine was recently thrown into turmoil, (redacted) warning a couple of weeks before Leila and Sean left for their cruise.
