June 3-St. Charles, Missouri

"You want some orange juice, Jason?" He didn't respond. He just sat at the table with his head in his hands. "Jason?"

"Hm?"

"Do you want some orange juice?"

"Uh, sure."

"You okay?"

"Yeah. Just a headache."

"When did it start?"

"3 days ago."

"Why didn't you say anything?"

"I thought it would go away on it's own."

"I'm gonna give you some codeine."

You got the bottle from the bathroom and came back into the kitchen. You handed him the pill, which he took with the juice.

"You have to tell me when something feels wrong. Okay?"

"Okay."

"Morning, family." Peter smiled.

He kissed you on the cheek and poured a glass of juice.

"So, you remember the plan?" You asked him.

"I distract Riley after the ceremony while you get the house ready for the best graduation party ever."

"Perfect."

"Where do you want me to take her?"

"I don't care. As long as it's not here."

"And don't get arrested again." Jason added.

"Please, don't."

"It was one time!"

💫

The sun blazed on you as you sat outside among the large crowd. You took the program and fanned yourself with it.

"I shouldn't have worn the tie." Peter said. "It's so hot."

"I told you."

"I know, I know."

"Attention, ladies and gentlemen. The ceremony will be starting in a moment." The principal said.

You, Peter, and Jason all took out your phones and waited for the right time to record. The principal, a few students, and some teachers gave a few brief speeches before it was time for the graduates to walk the stage.

"She's by the beginning of the alphabet." You said. "She should be coming up soon."

"Riley Bailey!"

The three of you cheered as she smiled and took her diploma. She waved and smiled at you before sitting with the other graduates. The rest of the ceremony went by quickly. When it was over, you all went over to Riley and tightly embraced her.

"We are so proud of you, munchkin."

"You did good, kid."

"We love you."

"I love you guys, too."

"I really hate to do this, honey, but I have to take Grandpa to a doctors appointment." You said.

"It's okay!"

"Maybe you and Peter can do something together until we get back."

"Yeah!"

"We'll try not to have too much fun without you."

"We'll see you guys soon."

As the two of you went to you car, Peter turned to Riley and smiled.
