"Aariaaa I need to be there in 20 minutes. Please get out so I can do my final touch up"

"Sorry Sorry Sorry.... I was doing my....."

"No time sis"

"Sorry and I love you baby. I am so proud of you...."

"Text me this so I can read in peace instead while pulling up my stockings"

The graduation morning was chaotic at the Anderssons. Aaria had taken longer than the designated bathroom time which left Auden in a state of panic.

Mr and Mrs Andersson had left early to collect the graduation present and flowers for their daughter who was receiving her title Doctor Auden Cinaed Andersson. They were extremely proud of both their daughters. Aaria, the older daughter is a fashion designer and Auden, the youngest of the family is graduating as a doctor. Both their daughters, despite being opposite sides of a coin, were lovely in their own ways. They could not have been more proud parents.

"Mom, Is that really...?"

"Yes, yes it is"

Auden was dumbstruck at the chain with a stethoscope locket. It belonged to her great grandmother who volunteered as a nurse to help the victims of war and was awarded this chain. Mr Andersson gifted it to his younger daughter since she was the one who pursued medicine after skipping an whole generation. 

The evening was celebrated by the Anderssons and her friends with their families, saying goodbyes and wishing each other well. Auden had been in the same place for 6 years ergo her entire life was here. She had a second family and a truck load of memories to hold on to, she lived through her character development during the pandemic, ongoing war, breakups and finally achieving her dream of becoming an actual doctor. This had become her comfort place, her preferred home, her truly loved friends were here and she had her most significant relationship until now. Leaving this place was the hardest thing Auden could imagine. She hadn't even started packing but the thought of leaving her comfort place and best friends to move to a place she felt so out of world, is terrifying. Auden was busy making mental pictures of this beautiful moment where she is in a room with all her loved ones. It was a melancholy moment for Auden. No amount of preparation and mental detachment could help her to not well up at the thought of leaving this place, but for now she decided to eat her feelings by chewing on the meat of her Hungarian Gulyas and enjoy this mixed emotions day.
