About This Piece

The Bamma side of the family never cared about keeping up with whatever's trending — still wearing what they like, still doing things the old way, completely unbothered by anybody's opinion on it.

This word's been used to tease plenty of people over the years, but in this family it's flipped into something else: pride in staying exactly who you are, trends be damned. Not behind the times — just not interested in chasing them, and confident enough not to need to.
