•33 - Graduation •

The time had finally come! Graduation day! This was the day that Aaliyah and her crew anticipated all these years. It may have been a bittersweet feeling but the crew had nothing but amazing memories to look back on. And carrying those memories with them, the class of 1998 was ready to move on...

"🎶Da da-da-da da-da-da dada da-da-da🎶" Eric sang confidently as he walked in the Richardson's living room.

"Awh so y'all the president, now?" Bryon laughed.

"Ooh, you show right, that is the president song," Eric chuckled.

"Hey Ms. Lady, we got a surprise visitor outside," Mila said to Janeé.

"Who?" Janeé cocked an eyebrow.

Janeé saw the living room door open.

"OH MY GOD! HI J.J!!"

"NEÉ NEÉ, HI!!"

Janeé and Jhene engaged in a big hug. The girls were beyond thrilled to be reunited with each other. Even though it had been two years, two years felt like an eternity to them.

"Oh my god bitch, I missed you so friggin' much!" Jhene said to Janeé.

"I missed you too, bitch!"

"So Ms. Bryon, what's been new wit'chu?"

"Bryon? I don't know what you talkin' about!" Neé joked.

"Awh so we playin' crazy, huh?" Jhene smirked.

"I ain't playin' crazy, girl."

Bryon had snuck up behind Janeé and smacked her on the ass before wrapping his arms around her.

"Girl, stop playin' crazy," Bryon kissed his girl on the cheek.

"I've always waited for the day to tease you in person about the two of y'all! So what the hell took y'all so long to get together?"

"Her (him)!" Bryon and Janeé said at the same time while pointing at each other.

"When's the wedding?"

"Okay we can talk about us later, what's more important is that our big sisters and brothers is graduating tonight," Janeé smiled, "and not only that, you just walked straight past your sister."

"She saw me earlier this morning," Mila chuckled.

"Oh I was finna say!"

"Yeah why you think we decided to surprise you, crazy?" Jhene laughed.

"Oh hush."

Lauren suddenly walked in with Rashad, his twin brother Clifford and Clifford's girlfriend, Tameka.

"Jhene, hi!" Lauren smiled and hugged Jhene.

"Hey La La!"

Aaliyah then walked in the house.

"Hey y'all, hi Jhene, long time no see! How are you?"

"Hey Li Li, I'm good, how are you Ms. High School Graduate?"

"Never felt better."

"So what y'all got goin on after graduation?" Janeé asked.

"We goin out to eat at Olive Garden then we rented out a beach house to have a little kickback afterwards," Tameka replied.

"No remember, Eric 'nems mama and auntie are cooking for us, we gone have all the food at the beach house," Aaliyah stated.

"Oh you show right!"
