"I can't feel my butt" Nathan groaned laying his head gingerly upon the steering wheel.
"Tell me about it" I said wiggling my behind across the seat slightly as an attempt to cure it's numbness. They felt lifeless, like a delicate cushion under the rough scraping fabric of my jeans.

It was a day before new year, when Diana brought the posts in. squeezed in between her families and friends cards and greetings was an envelope that had a thick golden emblem with a black S in cursive. I waited impatiently for Diana to notice it, my legs tapping ferociously on the ground as I ate my breakfast. Or pretended to.

"What on the earth?" she breathed.
"I can explain-" I said getting up from my seat, chewing the contents of my mouth.
"You applied for scholarship?" her disbelief was evident as she scanned the paper in her clutch once again. I admit it was sad to see her like this.
"Yes, but i-"
"And you got selected" randomly she exclaimed, I frowned my lips parted for next words that didn't made its way out as I saw her grin.
