The Conversation Continues Chapter 46

Mid May 2015

"I can't believe you guys are leaving again." Khai frowned.

"I know. But at least this time we're graduating." I said. He and I were walking around the practice field during lunch.

"I guess." He shrugged.

"You act like this gonna be the last time you see me or us. We'll be back. Performances at Karr every other month. Backstage passes for my niggas." I smiled. "You can't get rid of me that easy."

Khai laughed with me as I looked at my group of friends.

"No lie, I'm miss everyone. Y'all made high school for us." I sighed.

"Yeah." Khai sighed. "But at least we had this year, right? This was a good year and everyone really enjoyed it with you guys here."

"I guess so. Tomorrow is graduation and I did't even qualify for valedictorian like I hoped. Did you know you have to be at Karr for at least two years to qualify?" I rolled my eyes as Khai laughed. "But that's okay. I'll still walk like this when my name is called."

I strutted over to Prince like I was walking the runway as Khai laughed at me.

"Oohh! Get it, ma. Get it." Prince whistled. Isis shook her head at me as she rolled her eyes.

"Lunch feels long today." Jari said.

"And dead!" Juno sighed.

"Right. Right." Cori nodded her head. "I'ma miss y'all."

"We'll miss you guys more, Coco." Roc hugged Cori.

This day was important. All of our friends and family flew down New Orleans to see us graduate. And they did.

When each girl was called she strutted to the stage-- the same the boys and I did except our walk was more swag than strut. After the ceremony, we all went out to eat with the other graduates, their families, our families, and friends.

"Artemis. Juno. For you." Mr. Walter handed the twins two gift bags. I wrapped a purple clad arm around Jari who was in the same purple gown. We all stayed in our gowns as we ate.

"Daddy, you didn't have to." Juno and Artemis said at the same.

"Stop with the stereo." Miss Wendy said as they looked through the bags.

They pulled out a card and condoms. Ray, Roc, Isis, Brittany, Jari, and I started laughing so hard at Juno, Artemis, Prince, and Jacob's shocked faces.

"You're welcome." Mr. Walter smirked.

"Chris. Why embarrass them like that?" Miss Wendy asked as she put the condoms into her purse quickly. Mr. Walter just shrugged as he sipped his sweet tea.

"So now what?" Christan asked as she wiped Ma'Kayla's face. "What's after this?"

"Tour I guess." I shrugged.

"The second leg of our second headlining tour. And the boys are going on their third headlining tour." Isis said.

"Our line up is better, though." Jari smirked.

"Diggy, Jawan, and The Outsiders." Brittany said.

"We have OMG, Issa, and another girl group with us." Ray said.

"And ain't nothing better happen." Miss Janet, Jari's mom, looked at me.

"Nothing is going to happen." All four of us said quickly.

"Maybe we can get all of our friends at the New Orleans show in, like, three months." Juno said.

"That would be nice." Artemis nodded. "We have to talk to Walter, Kenneth, and Keisha. Do I have lipstick on my teeth?"

Artemis was asking Prince as she bared her teeth to him.

"No, but don't make that face." Prince closed her mouth as she swatted him. "Just being honest, mi amor."

"Whatever." Artemis rolled her eyes, making all of us laugh.

All of the graduates started singing the Karr fight song and we joined in.

"We are the Cougars, we are the bold

We are the Cougars, purple and gold

Onward to victory, and on to fame

And being honor to our name

Rah! Rah! Rah!

We are the Cougars, we're on the field

We are the Cougars, we'll never yield

Fight, fight our goals aren't far

We'll win it for dear old Karr

Second to none!"

That was one of the proudest, fit in moments I ever felt at Karr. Singing that song with all of the other graduates and alumni. And will always be my favorite moments.
