It's the last day.
Maya is thinking about everything that she still has to do and knows that she has a lot to get done for tomorrow.
But more important.
She has a lot to do before tonight because then she says goodbye to everyone.
Well almost everyone.
All her classmates and part of her friends.
The Matthews she'll see tomorrow before she leaves and she doesn't know what that exactly is going to be like.
She hasn't talked to Josh yet and she knows she has to.

It was late that afternoon and Maya got out of the shower.
Of course everyone was only meeting to hang so Maya would eat with her mom.
After she did that she went back to her room and decided on something a little bit more out of her comfort zone.
She put on a dress with heels and curled her hair.
She then did her make-up and grabbed her handbag.

"Mom I'm going," Maya said.
"Good luck Honey. I'll see you later," Katy said and Maya was gone.

Maya got to the bakery and everyone was there.
Her friends from school which included Riley, Lucas, Farkle, Zay and Smackle but also Josh.

"Hey guys," Maya said and sat down between Riley and Josh.
"Ready for the new chapter?" Riley asked.
"Kinda. A bit nerves. It's a while new place," Maya said.
"What about a few songs?" Farkle said trying to change the subject.
"Yeah. For last time," Riley said and Maya sigh.
"Okay," Maya said and went on the stage.

"La di da da da na
Yeah
Everybody loves to tell me I was born an old soul
Better keep my eyes wide open
There's so much that I don't know
Just another hotel room
Never felt so all alone
I think about my granddad's eyes
And they always send me home
I can almost hear him now
Gotta make him proud
I keep my eyes wide open
Bless this ground, unbroken
I'm about to make my way
Heaven help me keep my faith
And my eyes wide open
I can't see two steps ahead of me
When the fog comes rollin' in
I never thought I'd miss the rain
God knows how long it's been
This dream burns inside of me
And I can't just let it go
There's still so much that I don't know
I keep my eyes wide open
Bless this ground, unbroken
I'm about to make my way
Heaven help me keep my faith
And my eyes wide open
All I have is just this moment
I don't want to miss a second
'Cause it could all be gone in an instant
Yeah, in an instant...
I keep my eyes wide open
Bless this ground, unbroken
I'm about to make my way
Heaven help me keep my faith
And my eyes wide open
I'm about to make my way
Heaven help me keep my faith
My eyes wide open
Keep my eyes...wide...open."

Everyone clap hands but Maya is far from done for the night.
