We stayed on the phone all night and today was the day of the graduation. I actually overslept because I woke up around 1 and I was supposed to pick Mommy and Daddy up for 2 so now I have to hurry up so we all can be there by 3:30. I rushed to take a shower and put my clothes on. I already told Daniel where the school was so he's supposed to meet me there. When I was through getting dressed I locked up got in my car and left. I made it to Mommy house around 2:45.
"I am so sorry Mommy I overslept," I said.
"Michael come on!" She yelled.
My brother and Daddy got in and the other girls left with Towanda.
"Hey how you guys doing?" I asked.
"Look you was already an hour late getting here so can you please just shut up and drive Toni," My annoying little brother said.
"Mommy you're gonna let him talk to me like that?" I said.
"Drive!" They yelled at me.
I finally left a little upset because they were being so harsh on me.
When we finally made it to the school, everyone rushed to get their seats while I waited to see if Daniel would show up. 30 minutes had passed so I just went to take my seat next to Trina. I must admit that I was a little sadden because the program had started and there was still no sign of Daniel. It was close to the presentation of the diplomas and still no Daniel.
"Hey stranger," someone said.
"Oh you finally made it," I said a little annoyed
"I'm sorry," he said grabbing my hand.
I don't know why but I can't stay mad at people for a long time.
"I forgive you Daniel but what was the hold up," I asked.
"Traffic and trying to look good for you," he said making me smile.
"Well you look nice,"I said.
"Thanks but you're the one who's looking nice tonight," he said. I blushed.
"Stop that," I said.
"What?" He said a little confused.
"Flattering me," I replied.
"Well I'm telling the truth," he said.
Ms. Traci Braxton
They called her name and we all stood up and cheered. My sister got her diploma and she had honors too. I'm a proud big sister.
"That's your sister?" He asked.
"Yea and I'm so proud of her," I answered.
I was so busy cheering for my sister that I really didn't feel him staring at me. I sat down and our eyes met. He touched my leg and I moved his hand. We laughed.
After graduation, we all stood outside waiting for Traci to come out. I was standing with Daniel of course while he was leaning on his car.
"Well aren't you gonna say something to me?" He asked.
We smiled at each other and I understand where he was coming from but I didn't want to be all up on him because I didn't want to draw attention too quickly. We just met 2 days ago and I'm not ready for him to get into the Braxton Drama as of right now. He's not even my boyfriend.
"I'm sorry," I said acting shy which is something I'm most definitely not.
"You want me to leave now?" He asked.
