Three months later..
Jodie nervously paces into place outside of the office of the school, today she was gonna see if she passed her classes and if she was gonna get her diploma. She watched people come out with happy faces and sad faces. She sighs as she walks in and she sees a lady also a man sit at a desk, they looked at her with a small smile. "What's your name sweetheart?" The woman asked and Jodie swallowed hard. "Jodie Telamonte." Jodie says softly, she cupped her hands to her chest as she watched the lady looking for her name. She pulled out this folder and she hands it to Jodie. "Congratulations, Ms. Telamonte." The woman smiled and Jodie's mouth parted, she didn't know whether to scream in pure victory or to cry so she thanked the woman and man, talked out the room and did both.
Jodie jumped around and she waved her diploma around. "I-I can't believe I fucking did it." Jodie says with disbelief, she did a whole year's worth of work in a couple of months. Jodie runs out of the double doors of the school, Casper was waiting outside, standing in front of his truck talking to Mr. Papillon, it was their first time meeting. They see Jodie running and she had the biggest smile on her face. "I did it, I graduated!" Jodie screamed with excitement and she jumps into Casper's arms, he hugs her so tight. "I'm so proud of you." Casper beamed as she picks her up off of the ground and he kisses her head. "I knew you would Jodie, you're so smart and you deserve it." Mr.Papillon says and Casper puts her down.
Jodie looks at Mr. Papillon and she smiles then she hugs him. "If it weren't for you, I would've given up but you had faith me also you pushed me. You're the only person besides my grandma, my kids, and Casper that didn't give up on me and I just.. I-thank you so much." Jodie rambled and he Mr. Papillon was so happy and she made him feel like that his job if being a teacher wasn't so bad after all. "You're very welcome and I want you to have the best." M. Papillon says grasping her hand and she wipes her face.
Casper takes the folder and he sees her report card, he looks at it and he lets out a gasp. "Jodie, you-you passed all your classes with flying colors. a hundred in literature, in your math you have a ninety-five and the rest is just awesome." Casper gushed and Jodie's eyes popped out of her head because she looked at her report card, she did so well on her test scores when she thought she did horrible. "Wow, Lana and Sawyer are gonna flip because they told me if I get a 90 or higher that I get my own pizza party." Jodie chuckled because that's what she usually does when they brought home grades higher than 90s.
"Then we must get you home." Casper grinned and Jodie smiles as she jumps up and down.
Jodie looks at Mr. Papillon, she grabs his hand. "You have to come, I want you to come and it's gonna be fun!" Jodie exclaimed and Mr. Papillon nodded, he smiles. "Of course, I hope you don't mind me bringing my wife, Sloane, and Liam." Mr. Papillon grinned and Jodie nodded. "Oh yes, you can, I want to meet them so bad and it's gonna be so fun." Jodie says with excitement, Casper has seen Jodie excited a couple of times but she was just oozing with excitement that he worried that if she sat in the car for too long that she might just burst.
They parted ways and the couple head on to their house.
Jodie looks out the window when she sees her kids standing out holding a big sign with Marina and Fletcher saying congratulations. Jodie gasped and she sees them run up the field of flowers as they pulled into the driveway. She gets out of the car and immediately the twins caved into her leg and they hug her so tight. "I passed with flying colors and your Mommy is a high school graduate!" Jodie exclaimed as she held up her diploma and everyone cheered, they came into a group hug and Jodie smiles as everyone hugs her.
