~GRADUATION~
Everybody cheers as the final day of our high school life awaits us. All of us are wearing togas and formal dresses inside it. My hair is curled at the bottom and my mom applied light make up on me. Beside me is my mom.
As we sing our graduation song, I couldn’t help but notice that tears are starting to weld up in my mom’s eyes. I smile and whisper “Mom don’t cry or you’ll ruin your make up…along with mine.” To her.
She lets out a nervous laugh and puts both of her hands on my shoulder and turned me towards her. She squeezes it and says, ”I…I mean, Your dad and I are so proud of you.”
She hugs me and I hug her back.

Everyone throws their hats as the graduation ceremony finally ended. Everyone hugs one another and share tears. I hug Cherry first then Ian, Dan and the members of DW. And lastly, I find my way towards Ray. He was hugging Suzzane and letting her go the moment he saw me heading his way. He lets go of her and smiles at me.
I stand in front of him as he opens his arms, waiting for me to hug him. I arch an eyebrow at him and do the same movement and say, ”Happy graduation Raymond ”
He pouts for a second, “I told you not to call me that Shelly!” he whined.
I laugh and he envelopes into his embrace.
“Happy Graduation Shelby!!!” he shouts as he lifts me up. When he put me down he rubbed his fist on my head and I mutter out complaints about how he messed up my hairdo.
“Hey! I want in that friendship love moment too!” I hear Ian shout as he hugs both Ray and I.
“I want in!” we hear Cherry scream as she ran towards us and entered our hugs.
“Don’t forget me!” we hear Dan’s voice as he joins our group hug.
The five of us laugh and squeeze one another into a very tight hug.
“Absolute Zero forever.”-Ray says.
All of us smile at him.
“ABSOLUTE ZERO FOREVER!” We screamed.
Our moment was cut short when I felt hands pull me out of everyone’s arms.
I turn around and saw Tyler smiling at me then shifting his gaze to the others.
“Well, I don’t wanna rain in your parade but…we still have one last jam to do..Remember?” he reminds us.
All of us smile as we saw Suzzane and the other DW members wave at us from the stage.
“Almost forgot about that.” I said as all of us position ourselves in front of everyone.
The principal agreed to let Dirty white and the T-fest winners to give WWA one last jam to give our graduation a ‘spicy’ ending.
Everyone started screaming and clapping their hands the moment we were on stage. Ian, Cherry and Dan were off stage with our classmates. They choreographed a dance move that would make everyone join in with them as we sang.
There are three microphones here on stage, I take the middle one and Tyler takes the one at my right while Ray takes the one on my left. We give each other smiles as the music started playing.
