<p>Roommates, one of the best feelings is knowing your family has your back no matter what! This also goes for families built through love and marriages. Recently, Vanessa Bryant <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/vanessa-bryant-speaks-out-after-the-mambacita-shoe-honoring-gianna-bryant-is-leaked-ends-up-in-another-persons-possession/">demonstrated her love</a> for and commitment to her late husband Kobe Bryant&#8217;s family. Vanessa surprised her sister-in-law Sharia Washington with a brand new Tesla vehicle.</p>
<p>Both Vanessa and Sharia took a moment to share the news, along with photos, to their official Instagram accounts. In one photo, the two are seen embracing each other, while posing in front of the new vehicle. The Tesla is white in color and was adorned with a huge, red bow on the hood.</p>
<p>&#8220;Surprise,&#8221; Vanessa wrote and tagged Sharia&#8217;s Instagram page. &#8220;We love you!!! Tesla Tunnel, here she comes!! Vegas to Cali.&#8221;</p>

<p>Vanessa&#8217;s post also included a 39-seconds clip that showed both ladies interacting with each other and the car. At the beginning of the video, Sharia and Vanessa are seen walking towards the driver&#8217;s side of the Tesla. Sharia appears to be overcome with emotions and barely able to complete her sentences.</p>
<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t,&#8221; Sharia is heard saying in the video. &#8220;I&#8217;m done. I can&#8217;t take it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sharia wiped away tears mid-sentence. Then, both women are seen talking face-to-face. Sharia covered her mouth with her hands in what seems to be shock, while Vanessa wiped away tears. Vanessa then opened the driver&#8217;s door to encourage Sharia to climb inside her new Tessie!</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh my god, I need to do the whole tutorial,&#8221; Sharia said while still visibly emotional in the driver&#8217;s seat.</p>
<p>Sharia also took to her Instagram to pen a thank note to her sister-in-law.</p>
<div class=" Igw0E IwRSH eGOV_ _4EzTm ItkAi "><span class="">&#8220;OMG! So this happened today,&#8221; Sharia wrote in her caption. &#8220;Thank you so much V! I’m still speechless! This is absolutely amazing Love you!!&#8221;</span></div>
