Ice And Fire

We are grown up people now.

I always wanted to be a Editor in a publishing house. I wished every night and worked for it every day.

This time, my wish seems to be heard. As we are approaching towards the end of my school life, I started thinking about my career.

Thou lucas always seems to be worried about his career, I wasn't ever.

One day jokingly, I applied for college in Manhattan and to my surprise I was selected!!

I told this to Lucas and he was so much happy about it and he looked a bit tensed too.

Somewhere I felt that again he is hiding something again.

Or maybe he is worried about future. Or maybe let's keep it this way, our future?

Yes, I mean just two days ago we had this deep conversation and tomorrow we've to place our ideas.

I don't what I want to keep from my side, because I know things are changing.
Changing up so rapidly that I could hardly keep up now.

Yes, I need a rest from this chaos.

Especially for prom. I mean it is just three days away now. I've got a lot to plan and already I am so tensed about what will come out of tomorrow.

I hope everything goes on as it is planned.
Just don't know, whose plan plays here. Mine or God's?

This afternoon I was sitting at Jess's bed, when she said "I guess, we should go out." She said cheerfully.

"Umm. Yeah.. Maybe later" Christi replied as she was already deeply into her phone, smily now and then. Her fingers typing simultaneously.

She looked happy. Let her be happy.
But why is she happy?

Ugh I guess I'm losing my mind right now.

I volunteered "Let's go out shopping!!" and it startled all of the girls.

"Chill Riles. Okay so looking at your over the top enthusiasm, let's go out today." Cassandra replied in her chilled tone.

Cass hasn't changed a bit. Except for her tone.

I remember how high pitched it used to be earlier. Now it's really chilled and laid back. Earlier when she used to speak, it could be defeaning.

She got piercing on her nose and one on her upper lip. I honestly find it gross. I even tried to stop her but you know, she a person who'll do whatever they want.

She also got a tattoo on her back and successfully she has hidden it from her parents for over a year now.

How she does that. I mean I can't hide little things like midnight snacking.
My mom gets to know everything.

I believe she is a psychic.

For Christi, things have always revolved around her phone and now a days Ray.

I really hope something going between them. But also, I'm scared what if Ray breaks her heart?

He almost flirts with every other girl and Christi is just so naive.

I don't want her to be sad. Never.

Well, we all got ready and headed out.

Well the sun was shining pretty much brighter than usual. Or was it our charisma shining bright?

Jess took the control of driving, though I wanted to drive, but my superbly protective bestie won't let me drive.

Believe me I drive really good, just that they can't handle my great driving skills.
