Shivani

Indian American, South Indian, Tamil, Hindu but liberal, open-minded, 18. (You are Tamil and South Indian like her in America and 18 too) she is not interested in dating but particularly not you because she feels it's awkward to be with a boy that looks or is exactly like her. Your high school teacher (Sycamore High) assigns you and her on a project together on India since you both are from there.
