It is finally the day of your graduation. This the day all of your hard work gets paid off and you're grateful for everyone that made this day possible: your families, your friends, your favorite teachers and of course, yourself.

The graduation venue is at the hall behind the gym and it's packed with people. Your parents, Your sister Yuna and your cousins are seated at the row behind your bestfriend's, Mina, family. You waved at your family the moment you were standing in queue to get called to be given a diploma.

Mina pokes your side.

"Aren't you nervous?" Mina says.

You nodded slowly, your hands trembling. "Look at my hands. Of course, I am."

"Of course you would be. You're not only gonna accept the diploma but give speech there. Thank God I am not class valedictorian."

You scowl at her. "Thanks for the encouragement."

You're ready to be called when Mina pokes you again.

"Hey, didn't Meng leave for college without her diploma?"

"Yeah, I guess."

"Why is her family here then?"

"Where?" You search for the crowd and spotted Meng's parents, her little sister and someone familiar. Did Meng cut her hair? You thought. And you squinted to get better look at her. Then it hit you: it was not Meng. It was Hao.

You widened your eyes. You never realized they looked the same and now you doubt it's even him.

"Of course she needs that diploma. That's why she's back, I think," Mina is saying but you're not paying attention to her. "Don't you think? I mean you were supposed to know since you guys are close and all. Hey, Y/N, are you listening?"

You're not. You are starting at faded blond haired and glowing Hao who looks serious while crossing his arms and tapping his knees. You can't believe he is here when all those weeks you thought he left and you gave up on the idea of seeing him again. His eyes look piercing and that blond hair looked good on him than it does to anybody else. He looks good with his white button down and black jeans. His pouty lips are still pouted and you wonder what he is this worries about.

For the third time, Mina pokes you.

"They're calling your name," she whisper shouts and at that time Hao's eyes meet yours. A slow smile appears on his lips and he looked surprised. He then waves in tiny at you.

You waved back more enthusiastically and walk up the stairs. You accepted the diploma and took your seat.

When you were giving your speech, his eyes didn't leave yours. You didn't know whether to be flattered or nervous so you just avoided his eyes. You still couldn't give your speech properly since he us staring at you.

After speech made by everyone important in the school, you threw the cap upwards even if the principle told you couldn't.

"I'm proud of you, Y/N," your mom says wiping her eyes, after the ceremony and you're saying bye to your friends.
