Bridesmaid
Lauren is Nika's childhood friend from Kaimuki Middle School and best friend. They were both involved in the same activities like cross country and band. When Lauren and Nika would fly home for the holidays, they would get together and enjoy their annual 4.5 mile Diamond Head Crater run. It was not easy, but they persevered through it. Some kind of food reward at the end of the run was a must for them! Even though Nika and Lauren are two time zones and 2,300 miles apart, Lauren continues to hold a special place in Nika's heart. She currently resides with her husband Albert where country singers Taylor Swift and Toby Keith live...Nashville, Tennessee!
